CLEVELAND, Ohio — A federal judge on Thursday scrapped the city of Cleveland's plans for a heightened-security zone that would have encompassed most of downtown during the Republican National Convention, saying that the restrictions are burdensome to people who want to express their free-speech rights.

-Instead of suspending constitutional carry, why don't they reinstate the safe zone? It would have kept everyone's constitutional rights in tact (Unless suspending concealed carry was the goal to begin with).

I cant help feeling we are being played into "suspending" gun rights. This all seems to fit together somehow.

Depends on how big the battle is at the convention.

There will be one, unforunately.

I use the word battle because war has been declared.

It’s just that only one side is fighting

It just feels like a set up somehow. Why not go back to the original plan?

Of course some Federal judge would suspend reasonable rules. THEY WANT CHAOS AT THE CONVENTION.

I think this was decided a few weeks ago. I had hoped by now that the RNC would have reestablished the safety zone.
Instead, they seem oblivious to the danger.

This judge is not serving society.

I’m from Cleveland. I could not figure out why they would do this...I agree, they want this chaos. They are doing everything they can to make it happen.

As long as I get to see at some point, that venomous little twat Kendal Unruh and her #nevertrump turncoats getting dipped into feathers after a light coat of spray on tar (from the neck down of course), and her crying all the way back to Colorado, it’ll be a great convention.

Free speech should not include a right to intrude upon another group who has reserved and prepared a venue for a specific purpose.

This judge is a fool or he wants chaos and trouble at the Republican convention.

Just like the CIA-mole/ Fake-USAF "general" Ed Lansdale telling a Texas-based U.S. Army Intel Regiment in 1963
to "Stand-Down" before then U.S. President John Fitzgerald Kennedy
visits Dallas Texas on November 22, 1963.

Blood is going to flow in Cleveland....

And there are Global Elitists Who Want bloodshed to

1.) Prevent Trump from being elected and

2.) Bring about Martial law...completely...using Presidential Emergency Powers and all such mannerisms.

A federal judge on Thursday scrapped the city of Cleveland's plans . . .

He said the parade route is unconstitutionally insufficient.

Ignore him. His argument is Constitutionally insufficient. It's not on Federal property, yer Honor, so it's a city and State matter. Your mouth, by violating the Constitution, is a High Crime and Misdemeanor all by itself.

Speaking of which, your Federal District Court is on Federal property, and we think our parade route to protest your overreach is unconstitutionally insufficient. It needs to extend into your chambers so we can carry you out strapped to a pole upside-down.

Exactly. The protestors have more rights than those who want to plan a safe convention. That's insane.

The judiciary has no enforcement power. People act like judges use force. They don’t. Only the executive has force. The executive should ignore the judge and do what is right.

If the legislature wants to side with the judge and impeach the executive, then that battle can be fought at that time.

But for now — yeah: do it anyway.
