Secret Service: We’re not allowing firearms at the Republican National Convention
Source: Washington Post
Read more: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...nal-conventionThe Secret Service on Monday quashed the hopes of gun rights advocates who were pushing for the open carry of firearms to be allowed at this summer's Republican National Convention.
An online pe ion to allow open carry of firearms at the event rapidly gained signatures and attention in the past week, applying pressure to pro-gun Republican officials and presidential contenders to walk the walk when it comes to guns. But on Monday, the Secret Service, said it has decided only to allow law enforcement personnel to carry firearms at the event
" le 18 United States Code Sections 3056 and 1752, provides the Secret Service authority to preclude firearms from entering sites visited by our protectees, including those located in open-carry states," Secret Service spokesman Robert K. Hoback said in a statement. "Only authorized law enforcement personnel working in conjunction with the Secret Service for a particular event may carry a firearm inside of the protected site."
Guns are fine in Churches, Bars and Colleges....

Why is the United States such a gun-happy society? It's time to find out
Bang, bang, we're dead.
More than 196,000 people died of gunshot wounds in the United States between 2009 and 2014,
according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
An additional 400,000 suffered nonfatal gunshot wounds from 2009 to 2013 (the last year for which that data is available).
Nearly 600,000 victims in all, from toddlers picking up unattended guns to suicides to domestic violence casualties to those killed in mass shootings.
Why is the United States such a gun-happy society?
Are there demographic or other factors that distinguish people who use firearms against others? What effect do gun-control laws have on gun violence?
These are among the many questions that call out for serious independent inquiry. But few such studies are done, primarily because of an NRA-inspired bit of legislation that in 1996 stripped the CDC, the obvious federal agency to explore the public health aspects of gun violence, of the ability to conduct any research that would “advocate or promote gun control.”
It's reprehensible that a single lobbying group wields that kind of power — and has had such a disastrous impact on public safety. According to a January report by the Council on Foreign Relations, the U.S. has only 5% of the world's population but as much as half of the world's civilian-owned firearms. Not surprisingly, our gun homicide rate far exceeds those of other developed nations.
Yet the agency charged with conducting scientific research on public health is effectively muzzled, out of fear that a study might be perceived as promoting or advocating gun control. Only a relative handful of academics nationwide regularly try to analyze gun-violence data.

America isn't gun happy. A small minority of gun-fellatin perverts is gun happy, suckered, duped, misinformed by BigGun and its s in NRA and govt.
Is the Q a private venue? If so, your rights.
43% of Americans have a gun in the home, hardly a small minority.
That is what I would say, if I didn't want to admit responsibility for my extremist political views.what a load of bull
"why my beliefs and the hysterical environment my media encourages had NOTHING at all to do with these extremist nutters"
more bull
Please tell me about my extremist political views, this will be entertaining.
Lol gun fellationers
Glad they getting their pushed in on this issue.
Trump doesn't even like guns himself. He's just in it to win it
Earlier this month, the General Social Survey reported that gun ownership has declined to a record low. About half of all American households owned at least one gun in the 1970s. In 2014, only 31 percent had a firearm.
The General Social Survey is considered the gold standard for polls. It’s based on face-to-face interviews going back four decades, conducted by the independent National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago and funded by the National Science Foundation.
The numbers reflect a long-term trend. During the same period, the percentage of households with a hunter plummeted from 32 to 15 percent. Other important factors during these decades: the percentage of the population living in urban areas increased from 73 to 81 percent while the percentage of the US that is non-Hispanic White declined from 83 to 63 percent. The last demographic is important because, while 39 percent of White households possess firearms, only 18 percent of Black and 15 percent of Hispanic households have them.

You sound like a failed abortion, tbh
Open carry is a pretty dumb idea when there are presidential candidates in the building. More than enough security should be available.

crazy, police shoot blacks all the time because they "feel threatened" by an object in the black's hand, aka, cellphone.
Oh I gotta have that.
Should go great with the Private Pants that allow Mr. Johnson to hang free in public without being detected.
Comments from our customers: Peeing was never this easy. No zipper, no unstuff and restuff. Underwear? don't make me laugh. The guy waiting in line at the airport thanked me.
Wear it and be proud or conceal it, what a dilemma.
