MCPPA Birthday Rally

Went to the rally at the state capitol to celebrate the 1st anniversary of the Minnesota Citizen's Personal Protection Act. And, of course, took pictures.

I went there to support civilian carry permits, and self-defense in general; hence you'll find more pictures of our group than of the counter-demonstration.

I've removed grossly inferior shots, and left most of the rest even if they're kind of redundant. Anybody who needs higher resolution versions for editorial use, please get in touch with me.
