No link. I heard it on fox news.
Police association is wanting Ohio state law regarding open carry suspended so there are no open guns during the Republican convention.
Kasich has refused their request.
Give them a fighting chance? How about letting us poor proles be as well armed as the police AT ALL TIMES. No one is suggesting we disarm the police. I notice the call to disarm Citizens though, and I’m saddened, but not surprised to see support for that here.
Thank God for Katich’s common sense and lawfulness.
there’s no 100 percent guarantee against any and all violence, especially when Soros and his Nazi/IslamoNazi collaborators are organizing and funding it
but open carry is the best available deterent to violence...
Don’t put words in my mouth. I asked why we couldn’t TEMPORARILY, keep the immediate area around the Convention gun free. BLM and Panthers have said they’re coming armed and there’s going to be trouble. To ignore their warnings is stupid.
As it turns out someone told me it’s supposed to be a six-block radius around the convention for SS. That would work but 1) is that true and 2) will anyone enforce it.
My belief is they’ve evolved. But I may be wrong.
That said, the Bikers for Trump and SS will be there in force, too.
I didn’t read the article.
Is that a new rule? /S
Used to be a certain per cent of the KKK were FBI informants.
The feds had agents in virtually every anti govt movement.
I wonder what their representation numbers are with the NBP or BLM orgs.
overwhelming firepower and force, and rooftop observers all linked with central command video, n real time.
I think you misunderstand my position on this. I see no real benefit of having the area around the convention be ‘gun free’. (In quotes because only the law abiding citizens, not criminals will be affected by this). The real problem I see is that they will be disarming thr good guys and leaving them to the mercy of the criminal class. The elites won’t care because they will have heavily armed guards to protect them.
This two-tiered level of protection only benefits the criminal class. It has been shown that permit hilders in most states are actually More responsible and law abiding than even the police. No one has anything at all to fear from permit holders because the process weeds out the nasties fairly efficiently.
Personally, I think any venue that diarms its patrons should be held to a =much= higer standard as far as the protection of said disarmed patrons. Insurance rates should reflect this higher exposure on the part of the venues in question.
In a sane world being a gun grabber would have definite, and predictable consequences.
I agree that most licensed gun owners are more responsible but I also know black power groups are armed to the teeth.
I don’t have the answers just worry about the safety of our candidate and our country.
I’m less worried about the candidates, who will be very much surrounded by men with guns, sworn to protect them, than the average folk who can lay no such claim for protection from the state.
