Georgia Gun Laws Weigh on Atlanta’s Bid to Host 2024 Democratic Convention

CHICAGO — The battle between Chicago and Atlanta over hosting the 2024 Democratic convention is heating up with a new claim from Illinois that Georgia’s lenient open-carry gun laws — already an issue with several public events in Atlanta — could make security a nightmare.

With a decision possibly weeks away, officials involved agree that Atlanta and Chicago now appear to lead New York, the third of the finalists still under consideration. Union officials have for weeks pressed President Biden and the Democratic National Committee to pick the more union-friendly city; Chicago has 45 unionized hotels while Atlanta has just two, they say.

If leftists didn't piss people off by spewing hate, vitriol and stupidity maybe security wouldnt be a "nightmare." I hope they pick Chicago and I hope Chicago does what Chicago does on an average weekend.
