Protesters At GOP Convention In Tampa Can Carry Guns
Republicans make me laugh.
Take the case of the request by Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn to allow the city to ban guns during the Republican convention. Seems like a very forward-thinking idea.
But can you image the cramping this idea caused the three-thumb crowd?
Conservatives can be thankful that Florida’s Republican governor, Rick Scott, turned down such an appeal for the city, and the protestors who wish to show up and demonstrate their justifiable anger towards the GOP will be allowed to carry guns.
But inside the convention hall there is a ban on guns.
Say what?
I think that unfair, and from the statements that these candidates for the nomination have made over and over during the past year, such a restriction is a constitutional infringement on the rights of man. (If that sentence does not indicate I have been really listening to the debates…)
So consider this.
What would a grand ole party be like without some firing of pistols and showing off your weapon in the men’s room during intermission between the speeches of Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann? I am most confident that if Sarah Palin knew such a show was underway she would order Todd to hold the restroom door and then show all her arsenal as well. She seems to me just that type of woman.
I really think there should be guns allowed on the GOP convention floor. After all, what is a little gun powder on your hand compared to the slime of getting cozy on the floor with the Koch brothers?
I think Dante missed the point.
I want guns on the convention floor as it is the right of the 2nd amendment that all these folks have been talking about, and now they seem cowardly and not wanting to allow these conservatives to bring them into the convention.
What happens if one of the men makes an attempt to rape a female delegate, or there happens to be a black man that somehow slips on the floor. Where will one go to get a weapon if they are not allowed to bring the guns with them.
Good Lord, next the Republicans will not even get to carry extra ammo in their back pockets and purses when meeting in Tampa.
Where is the outrage over the protecting the Second Amendment?
Give it up. You people said Wis. would become the old west when concealed carry became law and it hasn’t. No matter how hard you try to take our rights away it has been proven over and over again that law abiding citizens are not the problem when it comes to guns
i think they should be allowed to have them on the floor as well. booze and guns mix very well. maybe they will become extinct by their own bad behavior
