Private property owners are not under any obligation to respect your 2A rights. Or your 1A rights for that matter. It’s no different than Internet forums censoring you or limiting free speech.

You’d think the NRA would respect them though huh?

It’s not the NRA making the rule dude. Did you read the article you posted ? It’s the secret service.

I thought it was their convention though? You mentioned private property, it isn’t at the NRA’s property?

No it’s not the NRA’s property. It’s at some venue in Houston.

2017; we’ve had plenty of time to think about it. But I haven’t.

so where does private property come in? You said the secret service made the call, is it their property?

Either way it wasn’t the NRA. So who cares.

The NRA has basically been anti-gun for a long time so it shouldn't be surprising.

No you don't. And even if you do, you're a few years too late. Which makes sense.

I’m to figure out what you guys are always going in about. Why you feel so passionately violated sometimes and perfectly content others

machine gun bans are unconstitutional.

Well Dan, I hate to keep beating this horse, but what you are actually doing is the same thing liberals always do. Take a situation out of context, make several misleading accusations that you think is some sort of a “ gotcha”, but actually is an example of you having little or no knowledge of the actual subject and attempting to paint anyone who isn’t “ outraged” as a hypocrite or an extremist.
In simple terms. Things the government does that make it harder for citizens to exercise their rights are bad. Particularly when it has no realistic benefit to society even though they claim that’s the point. The secret service not allowing firearms at a venue where a president is speaking doesn’t violate anyone’s rights. A venue not allowing firearms inside THEIR property doesn’t violate anyone’s rights. The government making it illegal to carry a gun in public spaces does.
Make sense to your addled, gender confused melon ? ?

other than government interactions where it is prohibited by infringement, I go where my 2A rights are respected.
there's a bar here on the island I used to frequent, it's a great place to meet tourist women. the owner put up a sign, as is her right, "no guns allowed", so I stopped going. Several months later, after I stopped going, the bar owner saw me and asked how I was doing, it's been awhile, you should stop by the bar again; I told her I wasn't going back because she banned guns from her bar, and that I only go where 2A right is respected. She was clearly surprised by my answer, but the conversation ended there.
There are plenty of establishments on the island that don't deny 2A rights, I found better places to go.
edit: I'll add I used to go to her bar all the time armed, concealed carry, before she banned guns from her bar.
