"Republicans Just Made Their Convention A Gun-Free Zone For Their Own Safety"



 occupydemocrats.com

excerpt:

the same political party whose obstinate refusal to consider even the most commonsense gun reform that would even amount to a minor inconvenience to gun owners has lead to the epidemic of gun violence which leaves around 300 Americans shot every day will not be allowing their beloved Second Amendment to be exercised at their convention. The same party that blames “gun free zones” and a lack of concealed carry laws for mass shootings is making their convention a gun-free zone.

This is ostensibly on the orders of the Secret Service, but the hypocrisy is truly unreal. They push for guns to be brought into every aspect of life – schools, the movie theater, grocery store, coffee shops – but refuse to have them at their own convention. This fact has not been lost on their supporters, 55,000 of whom have signed a petition demanding that they be allowed to bear their arms at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio.

there's a petition to allow guns and the article has a link to it.

Every American is endowed with a God-given Constitutional right to carry a gun wherever and whenever they please.
