More fear.

They don't seem to care about Quicken Loans Arenas constitutional right to control what happens on their own property.

I signed the petition.

You all should too.

I think a big shootout at the GOP convention would be absolutely fucking awesome!

It could be worth a year in jail to go in and fire off a couple rounds to watch those dumbasses go off like the morans they are.

With Trump calling for a revolution if he is not nominated, who in their right mind would want to attend the convention if a lot of the people are armed? Sounds more and more like a left wing hoax and a brilliant one at that. Time to sign that petition.

This is getting quite interesting and probably not the kind of attention that the GOP is looking for. More than 42,00 signatures already with a stated goal of 50,000 which seems like a slam dunk. Now how are the two leading candidates Trump and Cruz going to back off after comments like these?

Quote:
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), for example, suggested in December that gun-free zones attract killers.

"If you're a lunatic, ain't nothing better than having a bunch of targets you know that are going to be unarmed," he said.

A month later, Trump echoed that sentiment, saying he would end "gun-free zones" at schools and on military bases.

"You know what a gun-free zone is to sickos? That's bait!" he said in early January.
The best course of action seems to me to allow guns of all types at the GOP convention. Heck build a tent outside where the gun manufacturers can display their wares, an NRA booth, an open free bar for the convention revelers.
