Wake County school board member John Tedesco to speak at another Tea Party rally

In a move likely to fuel conspiracy theorists even more, Wake County school board member John Tedesco is slated to speak at another Tea Party Tax Day Rally.

Tedesco is among the list of speakers scheduled to talk at Tax Day Tea Party 2011 on April 15 in downtown Greensboro, according to YES! Weekly, a weekly in the Triad area. The event is being organized by Conservatives for Guilford County and they will be joined by groups such as AnyStreet NC, NC Right to Life, the Civitas Institute, the John Locke Foundation and the National Rifle Association.

Conservatives for Guilford is listed as a member group of the state chapter of Tea Party Patriots.

The sounds of guns and Gingrich

Run a letter about upholding or curbing gun rights, and it will not go unanswered. We feel strongly about the Second Amendment here in these parts. The NRA is held in higher esteem than the president, Congress, Democrats and Republicans after all. So I was kind of surprised that we got so little response today on the Page 1B story about Charlotte's hosting the latest NRA convention (read it here).

The bloggers at The Charlotte Observer have posted a little song about the convention. I offer it here so you can sing along or sputter your outrage.

"Lock 'N Load": Guns and the people who buy them

Showtime's "Lock 'N Load" should make the NRA really happy.

The show, which premieres tonight at 8, is a reality show about life in a gun shop. The featured salesman and the show's creator and co-executive producer is Josh T. Ryan.

Ryan, a stage actor, sells guns as a day job and figured out that the people he meets and the experiences he has would make a good reality show.
