Despite the facts that this event was not given a lot of publicity by the media (Shocking), and that many people who would have supported it had they received information about it ahead of time, Gun Appreciation Day appears to have been a success. I must note that, at least here in New Jersey, it does not look like the word was put out very well. I did not get one heads-up about this event and thus only found out about it this evening.

I found the website for the event. There is a petition that can be electronically signed and a space at the bottom where one can sign up for email alerts for any possible future dates.

The Hot Gates - 480BC. An event that was to determine what path much of the Western World would follow occurred as the Persian army threatened to overwhelm Greece in 480BC. The West today again faces both external and internal threats to its identity and existence.
