The last time I heard, NRA rallies are gun free zones. So I guess Benedict donald, thinks it's ok to kill kids. Go Figure.

So .. you can't have a gun during Trumps speech but before and after is ok. That makes perfect sense. 🤔🫤

These conventions are multi-day, multi-location events. You couldn't have a gun in the hall where Trump was speaking during the time designated for his speech. That was a mandate from the Secret Service, not from the NRA.

One of those easy-to-get guns almost did him in.

That said, I’m not expecting any change of heart or of mind. Unfortunately, I find myself bracing for more noise from the “MORE guns” crowd. Maybe A LOT more noise.
