I can’t post the photograph here, because it’s copyrighted and also because I don’t know how, but click here for the Delaware State News coverage of a Thursday afternoon “gun rights rally” outside Legislative Hall in Dover.
According to reporter Craig Anderson, about 50 people showed up — a pathetic number, to be sure, but also a vastly inflated number judging by the photo, which shows 16 people, some of whom appear to be reporters. This did not dissuade the newspaper from devoting lots of coverage, though the photographer was reduced to snapping a shot of some mook who dug out his Gadsden flag from the Tea Party days. Good times!
This is graphic evidence of what the NRA has always been about — making a few loud-mouthed loons seem like a tidal wave of gun support. This is the vast sea of voters Nicole Poore, and so many of her colleagues, are so afraid of.
I don’t know which group is more pathetic — these sad sacks standing in the rain, or the sad sacks in session inside the building.
