NRA Convention Bans Guns To Protect Mike Pence

[Swordsmyth]

Guns will be barred during Vice President Mike Pence’s appearance at an upcoming National Rifle Association convention to protect his safety

Those attending the NRA Leadership Conference in Dallas are on notice that no firearms or “weapons of any kind,” or ammunition, will be allowed in the Kay Bailey Hutchinson Convention Center “prior to and during” Pence’s appearance on May 4. The NRA posted the restrictions ― a requirement of the Secret Service ― on a website announcing the conference.
“There will be no storage for firearms,” the NRA says in the announcement. Knife Rights, a knife advocacy group, will provide “complimentary storage” for knives, the NRA adds.

We believe in freedom and the 2nd Amendment... except when we don't.

But the Police and CIA will be there so it's OK.

*gets tasered, has flintlock confiscated from shaking hands*

LOL. Bootlickers! Here's an idea. Just let Pence join your little conference via video conference. Problem solved. Oh but you want Pence to be there physically so he can show how pro gun he is.

This is the secret service . NRA would have known this when they invited him .

Suddenly liberals support gun rights, oppose gun bans, so they can assassinate the VP

[phill4paul]

Not. Really. Advocates.

I'm more interested in who will actually show up to this event.

[juleswin]

Makes sense to me. There is a high value target in the building, they have their own security and in that case, they have no use for amateur gun users. Its really that simple folks.

I see lots of articles that say the NRA Bans Guns,,, but is sounds like it is an SS gun ban.
