The city of Cleveland, Ohio has bought insurance in anticipation of large scale rioting at this summer’s Republican National Convention, Shane Ferro reports at the Huffington Post. He also begins to lay out a media narrative that Republicans may to blame for some potential violence.

A Demonicrat Cleveland mayor and a RINO Ohio governor will certainty make the RNC situation worse.

They will order police to not take action against anti-Trump rioters, but will promptly order them to shoot any right-wingers who show up to protect the convention.

Now I see there’s a 50 million dollar taxpayer grant. To make sure whatever ins co writes the policy, they can’t lose.

It's not insurance, it's just a wealth transfer scam to give tons of cash to anarchists.

But cheer up - there's always the Indians....

How our great Country has changed over the past 8 years or so. Riot insurance????? Sad indeed.

Though Ohio-born, my parents moved back to Pittsburgh when I was a young lad. So Pirates-Steelers fan here.

The good thing is that they did not move back here until after I had learned to talk.

Thanks! You save my old eyes and time. Now I don't have to read the full article to find out what I expected. Thanks again!

Now I see there’s a 50 million dollar taxpayer grant. To make sure whatever ins co writes the policy, they can’t lose.

Crony capitalism at it’s finest.

If angry rioters burn down Cleveland, will anyone notice/care?!

[Carriage Hill]

Safe bet that “stand down & watch closely” orders will be given, and parts of Cleveland will get trashed, burn and get some “urban renewal” areas. Guess who gets blamed?

Chicago ‘68 redux?

What was it that idiot woman in Baltimore said? We just want to give them the space they need to do what they’re going to do? Or something like that...

Good investment. If the GOPe tries (and how can they not?) to steal the nomination, there WILL be riots.

I would hope not. If the GOP steals the nomination from Trump, I would expect protests but not not riots. I was thinking the expected protestors were the BLM and Occupy idiots.

[null and void]

I’m expecting riots, and fatalities among the GOPe leaders.

Hope I’m wrong.

Anither insurance company counting on a bailout.

Nothing says “Republican landslide” like Democrat street riots.

Have you see the official logo? I guess it's been out for a long time but somehow I never laid eyes on it till now.

It looks nice, I like it. But it seems particularly vulnerable to mockery, because of the guitar. I can imagine the late night tv jerks saying "Oh look at the Republicans trying to be hip". And headlines like" "Rock and Roll stars blast GOP on eve of convention".
