Cleveland seeking to buy riot gear for Republican National Convention
Cleveland is seeking to buy 2,000 sets of riot gear, including riot-control suits and collapsible batons, as part of the city's latest move to spend a $50 million federal security grant for July's Republican National Convention.
The city this week posted to its contracting website a notice seeking bidders to provide the gear. City documents refer to the "Elite Defender" riot-control suit manufactured by HWI Gear and a 26-inch baton manufactured by Monadnock, plus 2,000 bags to carry them.
The city also wants to buy 310 sets of riot-control gear — long-sleeve jackets, gloves and shin guards — that would be suitable for use by police riding bicycles. (Scroll to the bottom of this post to read the complete specifications for the riot gear.)

Why are liberals so violent?
Because fascists have never been known for restraint or peaceful discourse. They can't help it.

The riot gear may become useful INSIDE the Republican Convention if things keep going the way they are..... :whistling:
Seems like little Rubio, Kasich (if he's still in the running by then) and Cruz are pushing for a "broker's" convention...

I'm not sure Cruz is pushing for one, but Rubio and Kasch, yes.

1968 anyone?

After the twerps dumping chunks of concrete from freeway overpasses (hoping to take out some delegates) and that foiled bomb plot - both aimed at R convention(s) - I wonder whether being prepared for a riot is misdirected or insufficient.
