33,000 Sign Online Petition Promoting Guns At Republican Convention (cnet.com)
An anonymous reader writes: "An online petition on Change.org claims that constitutional rights are being denied to those who want to bring a gun to the fight for the Republican Party's future," reports CNET. "Though Ohio is an open carry state, which allows for the open carry of guns, the hosting venue — the Quicken Loans Arena — strictly forbids the carry of firearms on their premises." Citing a quote from the National Rifle Association that gun-free zones are "the worst and most dangerous of all lies," the petition has already attracted more than 33,000 signatures, though CNET reports that the whole petition is a satire they're attributing to the Hyperationalist blog. The petition appears to have attracted its last 8,000 signatures within the last 18 hours, shortly after its URL appeared on a web site for young conservatives.
But the best defense against a liberal with a gun is a conservative with a gun. I would imagine that if the liberals start shooting, the conservatives will make quick work of them.
I'll contribute some ammo, but they gotta use it or give it back afterwards.
I have some surplus guns they can use - all never used more than once. Same caveats as you, they gotta use it or give it back.
It must have been something you assimilated. . . .
I wish someone would petition for open carry of whip cream pies at all political events.
Some drink at the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.
The rest of the world will cheer, loudly.
A very good friend of mine was very pro gun. He was posted to a country where carrying guns means an automatic 5yr stretch in jail.
After a couple of years he saw the other side of the argument. so much so, he leftthe service and stayed here saying, it ain't safe back home in Texas to bring my kids up.
It is not the late 18th Century any longer. The need to carry a gin at all times in civilised countries is a thing of the past. I just wish the USA would join us in the 21st Century.
Trump has those small hands and fingers, he is probably carrying a ladies gun.
