BigJim Posted March 8, 2010 at 06:40 PM Author Posted March 8, 2010 at 06:40 PM Since someone already took the time to create a flier for us then we'll use it. I thought we were going to have to put it together ourselves.
ANTHONYM Posted March 8, 2010 at 08:19 PM Posted March 8, 2010 at 08:19 PM I have a friend of mine who has some friends in Elgin PD. He is going to see if the head of the SWAT team would like to talk if that would be someone you might like to have their.
BigJim Posted March 8, 2010 at 08:22 PM Author Posted March 8, 2010 at 08:22 PM We are trying to get Lorraine Fidonik of the Second Amendment Sisters to speak. Let's see what she says first.
Chris Posted March 8, 2010 at 08:24 PM Posted March 8, 2010 at 08:24 PM I have a friend of mine who has some friends in Elgin PD. He is going to see if the head of the SWAT team would like to talk if that would be someone you might like to have their. If they do have him talk, I'd suggest he doesn't put his foot in his mouth like the sheriff at the McHenry one.
BigJim Posted March 9, 2010 at 02:42 AM Author Posted March 9, 2010 at 02:42 AM Good news, we have added Lorraine Fidonik of the Second Amendment Sisters to our list of speakers. Now all we are waiting on is for Todd to secure a commitment from Rep. Tim Schmitz and we will have our speakers.

Kenny Posted March 16, 2010 at 11:13 PM Posted March 16, 2010 at 11:13 PM This may be a good event for Bill Brady to be noticed at the doorstep of Chicago!! Is there still room for another guest speaker MollyB? I can make a phone call & ask if you are interested & if he is interested.
BigJim Posted March 17, 2010 at 02:22 AM Author Posted March 17, 2010 at 02:22 AM I have no problem with Bill Brady attending and shaking hands. I am concerned about asking him to speak for fear that he will use his time to campaign for office instead of informing the audience about RTC.

Drylok Posted March 30, 2010 at 04:33 AM Posted March 30, 2010 at 04:33 AM I have some hunting buddies in that Kane Co area. I'll copy the flier and send out a mass email to them and see if we can get some of them to do some leg work for us.
