The discussion I have seen today, has been a call by some (even NRA members) insisting that the NRA relocate the convention somewhere else for 2007...

I commented here wondering if that should be done...

The pros and cons of that action seem to be focused on the good it shows a community that an organization should have conventions (like this) in a very anti-gun area...Whatever the local government does...

The cons (of which I understand, and agree with) are that the money generated by the convention and its attendees and exhibitors will go to that city government which passes those ordinances/laws...I somewhat have a problem with rewarding government entities with monies like that...I certainly don't oppose money directly benefitting local businesses with patronage because of a convention...But those cities like Columbus need to feel the sting of denial of revenue from organizations/agendas they oppose...

But thats just my opinion...
