I have no idea as to the Constitutional legality of this move by DC police. I do believe there will be people on both sides of the issue that will ignore the signs.

Now don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty positive that burning churches down, beating people in the streets, rioting, theft, attacking cops, throwing industrial fireworks at attendees, and stabbing people is against the law. I don't think a cute sign is going to stop people from carrying during the march. As a matter of fact, I encourage it. Especially, and ironically, since the Heller v DC ruling.

Heller only dealt with ownership in the home, not the ability to carry in public.
Scalia also noted in his opinion in Heller that the 2nd Amendment "is not unlimited" and that it was "not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose. "

PO1 (Join to see) - you are correct, however, DC still bans ownership, going against the ruling. As I've said previously, the Cap PD have no problem calling out gun owners but do diddly squat to fight rioters and those that attack their own. The irony is ridiculous. Much appreciated.

SFC Stephen Hurst yes, sir, I know. I was being sarcastic. Apologies, I know a bit of sarcasm doesn't translate to text very well, haha.

IMHO, It is simply a repeat of 2018 policy from NRA convention

No Guns Allowed During NRA Convention Speech By Trump, Pence
The organization said it's the Secret Service's decision, but the group is taking heat from critics demanding the same level of security and members arguing the ban undermines the NRA's basic tenets.
