This should make it really comfortable for everyone.

Cleveland officials said Wednesday that they will uphold the right of protesters at the Republican National Convention to carry firearms even as they expressed opposition to the state’s open carry laws.

Speaking to reporters in advance of the Republican National Convention next week, both Cleveland Mayor Frank G. Jackson and police Chief Calvin Williams they were bound by the state’s laws allowing people to carry guns even if they disagreed with them.

“Our intent is to follow the law. And if the law says you can have open carry, that’s what it says. Whether I agree with it or not is another issue,” said Mayor Jackson in a press conference.

      Illegal to carry a weapon in an event where the secret service is guarding candidates.

    You can carry a gun as long as it’s not a paintball gun. Knives and “Umbrellas with a sharp tip” are also banned. (Seriously)

      “Umbrellas with a sharp tip” just might deflate some over blown egos
