The Rod of Iron Freedom Festival is an anti-government, Christian far-right movement that held a 3 day 2nd Amendment Rally of Freedom, Faith and Family. A few far right politicians were in attendance and the event featured a speech from HJ Sean Moon, the founder of the World Peace and Unification Church in Pennsylvania, who often wears a crown made of bullets. Members take marriage vows to their AR-15 rifles and have blessings for their guns. Many in attendance were seen carrying guns. (Aimee Dilger/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images)

The first Pannls are almost here. We've been doing our initial "practice" Pannls with friends and friends of friends (including last night's spirited Pannl at Brentwood's aptly named "Bar * Food"). Which gets us to our upcoming alpha test. We initially thought that most of our early Pannls would be on interests such as entrepreneurism and technology (because these are what we inevitably talk about when we get together). However the signups so far have shown even greater interest in topics such as the "Stand Your Ground" laws and other current events.
If you've signed up for our alpha and are in LA area you'll soon be getting an invite to the the first Pannls and we look forward to seeing you there. If you aren't nearby, don't worry. Please signup anyway (at the link on our homepage) and you'll be telling us that you would like us to hurry up and come to your area. There is certainly no shortage of things to talk about.
