Summary: LAID in Moto-city Streamed Live 4/18/12: Rick “9mm” Ector, firearms instructor, blogger, gun rights activist, and media resource, dials up the GRRN barroom from the mean streets of Detroit. In an outstanding interview, he recounts his 7 year journey from unarmed mugging victim to the owner of Rick's Firearm Academy of Detroit, and his corresponding move into gun rights activism. Despite years of Mark’s stalking, when cornered at the NRA convention Rick quickly agreed to this interview, and hopefully many more. After attending many meetings, interviewing countless people, and pulling hundreds of triggers, Mark describes his trip to the 2012 St Louis NRA Annual Meeting & Exhibits (NRAAM). It’s Mecca for firearm and freedom fans. Sounds like a great time! You know…next year’s NRAAM is in Houston, and there’s already talk of a GRRN Expedition. Keep an eye on this GRRN Forum Thread for developments. The Vicki is once again a rose amongst the thorny chatroom denizens. However, hemmed in by piles of spent casings and smoking computers, Gail doesn’t call in. The next fun, frivolity, and firearms full iteration of Mark and Doc’s Bar Stool Discussions is May 2nd at 9:00 EDST – 6:00 PDST. You don’t want to miss it!
