Via Bearing Arms, I find out that there will be a “Die-In” event by Disarm Hate. I have no idea if Shannon Watts will make an appearance there or if she will have her own thing somewhere else.
I would not be surprised if this event is part and parcel of Moms Demand. (I found out it is not, Moms will have their own get together at the same place on Saturday.) But even if it does not, it fits patterns we have seen before. Here is the “press release”:
“The Georgia Alliance for Social Justice along with our partners Better Georgia, Gays Against Guns, Guns Down, Pride Fund to End Gun Violence and more will host a powerful event to take place at the same time as the NRA National Convention’s Leadership Meeting taking place at GWCC. Their event will feature such notable figures as: Donald Trump, Kellyanne Conway, Wayne LaPierre, Ted Cruz, David Perdue and more.
We will make a powerful, visual statement in Woodruff Park: A Die In. We will post more details soon.”

The obligatory instructions with some funny warnings:
And a sure sign of how unafraid they are about facing Trump and the NRA rednecks invading Atlanta:
My memory is now telling me me that these people are George Takei-inspired and other LGBQTRGSNLXYZ groups formed after the Pulse shooting so we may see our friend and former CSGV honcho Ladd Everitt prancing around the park.
And as usual, a handful of people will get more media attention than the tens of thousands of NRA members enjoying themselves, bringing money to the area and if trends from past Annual Meetings hold, a descent in local crime while NRA members are in town.
My first thought was “That’s about a half a mile away!” 😉
If all the anti-2A hoplophobes are actually going there to DIE, I applaud this event, and encourage ALL gun-hating Liberals to join them in death- preferably by suicide that does not involve use of a firearm.
God bless America.
MOLON LABE!
