No water pistols, Glocks allowed

According to an editorial in today’s New York Times, the Tampa city council is getting ready for the Republican National Convention in August.  The council has temporarily banned “...clubs, hatchets, switchblades, pepper spray, slingshots, chains, shovels and all manner of guns that shoot water, paint or air.”
On the other hand, you can take your Glock, loaded with real bullets, and walk around outside the hall.  It seems that Florida has a law that any local government that bans firearms can be fined up to $100,000.  
The Republican Party is full of Tea Party activists who don’t like Romney, or who do like Romney but not Gingrich or Santorum.  These are the people who brought loaded handguns to townhalls in 2010.  These people are crazy.
You might want to avoid Tampa during the Republican convention.  If you do go, be prepared to take cover.
