CLEVELAND, Ohio — A federal judge on Thursday scrapped the city of Cleveland's plans for a heightened-security zone that would have encompassed most of downtown during the Republican National Convention, saying that the restrictions are burdensome to people who want to express their free-speech rights.

-Instead of suspending constitutional carry, why don't they reinstate the safe zone? It would have kept everyone's constitutional rights in tact (Unless suspending concealed carry was the goal to begin with).

At the end of the article it says that :

“The ACLU, in its lawsuit filed last week, represented Citizens for Trump, Organize Ohio and the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless, which are planning to demonstrate and march at the convention.”

Organize Ohio-To advance and encourage community organizing as a strategy for progressive change in Ohio.
Organize! Ohio strives to build a system of support for community organizing efforts across the state by bringing together groups and organizations.

The way I look at it is that the Anti-Trump forces will not have total control of the situation like Cleveland wanted. At least we are allowed to be there too as a counter balance. You should be glad we won the lawsuit.

Permits Granted to Anti-Trump Groups

I use the word battle because war has been declared.

It’s just that only one side is fighting.

Have you read this recently published book? Catherine Austin Fitrs, in her latest interview with Greg Hunter, was talking economics. She happened to mention that she just finished reading this book and it was fantastic.

I haven’t read it but it sure does look interesting...I learn something every time I hear Catherine Austin Fitts speak, as well. She doesn’t get Mr. Trump, but she sure does understand economics and who she calls “Mr. Global”.

Was the federal judge a clinton or Obastard appointment?

How did you guess? It was Clinton!

Keep the security zones and worry about the fallout later.

These judges are insane and will get people killed.

The point I am trying to make is not WHO is protesting. The point I am trying to make is that the “safe zone” needs to be reinstated so as not to suspend any gun laws. The safe zone was for ALL protesters and was a good idea in light of the current targeting of police.

That is a fallacy. They were only going to let anti-Trump forces in like the cops do at his other rallies.

2.) Bring about Martial law...completely...using Presidential Emergency Powers and all such mannerisms.

We could never be that lucky.

With Soros and his hired cretins and the DOJ and DHS that really hope that something happens there, yep .... sounds like a setup.

OK, so Gwin is a Clinton stooge. Way to serve your masters and fuel that race war, Gwin. Your communist masters are pleased.

If there was ever a year security should be expanded it is this year. If police are killed in that zone during this convention, every dead cop will be on this jackass’s evil commie head.
