Town Hall at UB School of Law 1/31/13

[Multifaceted]

Does anyone else plan on attending this with the Mayor and Lt. Governor?

There was an impressive showing at last Saturday's Townhall with Senator Brochin in Towson — and was hoping to see they same for this one. I know it's probably not convenient for many (I know it isn't for me); but this is important, because I am speculating that there will be a substantial amount of anti-gun folks.

I used the link to R.S.V.P, however; I didn't receive any confrimation after doing so, nor in my email inbox. Has anyone else who is attending experienced this? I was a little late to sign-up (about noon yesterday) — so I'm hoping it isn't full... hate to drive all of the way down and then park, only to learn that I cannot enter.

Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I think all we can do is show up and do what we can. Nobody answered my question about the Bowie one being for locals only so I got my points in anyway. Just like the Greenbelt thing we need to infiltrate these things and then clearly make our case to the assembled and the media.

I'm University of Baltimore Merrick School of Business alumni, so I would love to attend. However, my one year old daughter comes first.

I'll have my say on the 6th in Annapolis.

Agreed, that is all we can do. Doing nothing would guarantee a win for the anti-gun crowd. Did you receive any confirmation about your attendance? ... assuming that is, you are going.

I understand, and will be in Annapolis on the 6th as well.

I plan to attend tonight. Did RSVP and got a note back immediately that "Your response has been recorded." It's hard to tell what that means, and I haven't found any information on the process tonight. What happened at Towson? Was it just propoganda from the platform or was there opportunity for questions from the audience?

I'm going tonight. If nothing else, it will be good intel. I'm treating it as psyops. I'll be playing the part of a concerned dem anti who did some research and had an epiphany.

I RSVP'd and it doesn't send an email, it just takes you to a page that says your response has been recorded. I just re-registered and it did the same thing. you are GTG.

That's what was given to me also, I don't know why I expected it, but an email confirmation should have been sent. After all, an email address was one of the required fields...

MDShooter's comment is true, I also believe it went well for us. Mr. Brochin appeared to listen to us intently, and took a lot of questions and statements. He seems more moderate than progressive, and perhaps sees things more pragmatically. Though, who's really to say at this point.

I'm in Carroll, but will be coming from Woodbine in HoCo after work. Do you think there will be parking issues?

I know where it is and think there should be metered parking on the street or at least a garage for the campus. Never taken the Light Rail ever in my life, so a little hesitant to inject those logistics into a last minute schedule.

There's metered street parking around most of the building, especially on the Maryland ave side. There's a garage at the Fitzgerald, but it's a little pricy.

No suit, but I did bring a change of clothes: nice shoes, dress pants, collared shirt & matching tie.

I am thinking either Mt. Washington or Falls Rd. there should be a few trains heading south between 6:00PM and 6:30PM.

Last trains at night leaving from U Balt are at 1:28AM.
