In reply to the discussion: BREAKING!!! Hypocrite Bans Guns At Inauguration [View all]sarisataka

As DC's permit issue is under a court ordered stay, it is likely less than 100 civilians have carry permits there. Forty-four was the only number I could find. DC does not recognize any state's permits as valid for concealed carry and open carry is prohibited. Therefore this rule applies to only those forty-four or so people.
The 'weapons of any kind' rule will be far more wide reaching. It could be stretched to include such items as mace and pocket knives. Definitely leave the nunchaku and throwing stars at home.

Mark my words. If ever anyone takes a shot at the Orange One or his family, all guns will be banned.

Trump knows how dangerous a bunch of ignorant white wing GOPer racists are when armed.
