Okay, guys, you know I'm not going to get into a debate with you about guns, so just forget it. We agree to disagree. But you tell me if this makes sense. Email from a Florida friend: And here's the story: http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/04/03/florida-law-requires-gop-to-allow-concealed-weapons-at-convention/
Nothing unusual here. Local ordinances generally cannot override state laws. I hope the local authorties do a better job of handling this convention than the last one. What transpired around the 2008 RNC convention in St. Paul was a disgrace in the civil rights department. The 2008 DNC convention in Denver wasn't much better.
Most concealed carry permit holders carry and obey the law, in fact you probably won't even be able to identify who is packing. Now those water pistols, who wants to get sprayed down with an unknown liquid?
You're absolutely right, boogie dog! After all, liquids can be mixed together to form *gasp* explosives!! They should ban all liquids, and make everyone pay $10 for each bottle of water ... helping to eliminate the national debt... just a thought...oh, never mind!
