I was keeping an eye on my new notifications for any post-Shannon comment and overall creative review of the Moms Demand Anti NRA protest, but nothing showed up. Jeff A. via Twitter linked to an article undated but probably written after Shannon’s little party in the park.
On Saturday morning, about a mile from the convention, a group of about 100 protesters has gathered in Atlanta’s Woodruff Park. The demonstration is organized by Everytown for Gun Safety, a gun-violence prevention group that was started after the Newtown, Connecticut, school shootings in 2012.

And Ladies and Gentlemen, that was it. Even though my News alerts were bombarded daily and almost hourly before the protest, no major outlet covered the event or made comments about it (other than CNN’s passing remark on the bigger NRA article. It is like suddenly it never happened. It was a Non-Event, memory holed, “We’ve always been at war with Eastasia.”
But the Internet never forgets. And in the Era of “Resistance” by the liberals, that one of the most subsidized Gun Control groups with the backing of the alleged best PR companies in NYC cannot come up but with a measly 100 people in a Blue Southern city tells you the real grassroots and voting power they have. They are shadow puppets writ large.
But apparently some within the GOP are afraid of shadows. We may be needing to get people who are not only not afraid of the dark, but are the ones that make dark fearful to others.
I’ll also settle for people with cojones and/or backbone.
