Why is it shut down? The government is letting protesters, looters, and rioters run rampant, but we can't go to a convention why?


No Jab.

Liability reasons for the host entity. Next year is not an election year so the convention IMO will be on again then.

I bet the fairgrounds will be empty. We should show up and stage a peaceful protest. One with food, drinks, tailgaters, demos and vendors. After a couple days of proving our point, clean the place up and disperse.

When you deal with federal, state, county, city units of government yes there can be set backs but in our case with the rondy the fair board which owns the grounds and the WTA and fair board insurance providers were not going to take on the responsibility. For those that come the fair grounds will be locked up so bring extra cash for the trespassing fines that you may have to pay. If there are those that want to meet and have a session there are numerous options you can utilize other than just making noise about what you don't like.
