I bet you a 22lr round, this will take traction and grow for the shows at Chilhowee:

 

PS I bet they didn't protest long in the cold and snow.  And I did get my question answered if there was a gun show or not

Protesters don't want gun show in their neighborhood

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT)- Despite the cold weather, a group of people in East Knoxville stood outside to have their voices heard.

They're upset about the Chilhowee Park gun show happening in their neighborhood. They say this hits too close to home after several teens were shot and killed by gun violence in that same area.

"We're not saying they're doing anything wrong or anything like that, you know we don't know. But what we are saying is that guns are being supplied out on these streets." said Lawrence Williams with World United Ministries.

He says they plan to continue to protest at each show held at Chilhowee Park.

"guns are being supplied out on these streets."

Huh... so that's why there's people hanging around the back door... :squint:

 

"He says they plan to continue to protest at each show held at Chilhowee Park."

C'mon now, don't forget the Expo Center! :stir:

I agree 100%, I have NEVER wanted a gun show in their neighborhood.

But that's one of the items on my list. The others include

Pizza Palace
TVA fair
Anything else ever held at chilhowee EVER
The zoo
Chandlers deli
What few customers i do work for
Any other potentially good restaurant that had a chance to be something before realizing where they opened up shop.

This is grandstandin pure and simple... It's nothin more than shameless panderin to these single mothers who cant believe their little boys can grow up and turn in murderin, rapin, pillagin monsters... Guns aint the problem; absentee fathers, no fathers, and a matriarchial society that chooses to not to address the real problems are...

I've been to a few shows up there and never have seen any bangers at the show........what they worried about anyways? Obama closed the gun show loophole.

Perhaps these guys should have to pass a background check before being allowed to carry a sign?

Perhaps their time and effort would be better spent coaching local young people to not grow up to be thugs. Instead they harass honest, law abiding folks who likely come in from out of town, buy guns and take them back out of town. I'd venture that few, if any, of the gun show guns actually make it to their streets.

and don't forget the permit and training on how to safely carry a sign and what laws pertain to the carrying and use of a sign.
