Is there a federal law that addresses this, or is it just a matter of "if you want Pence/Trump there, this is what you'll do, to heck with state law."?
I should have read the article first - apparently there are just such laws:
The NRA is complying with laws that prohibit firearms from being brought into areas where Secret Service protectees visit...
Just add it to the list of laws that need to be changed, since it very clearly sends a double-message.
