As the presidential race moves into a key two-week period, with
the announcement of running mates and the party conventions, Donald
Trump has taken an apparent slim lead over Hillary Clinton, based on
strong support from white voters, particularly men.
That finding, from a USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times Daybreak tracking poll, a new survey that begins publication Friday, marks a significant shift in a race that most polls indicated Clinton has led since mid-May.
You can't bring a water gun to protest the RNC, but you can bring an AK-47

If a single sentence could capture the madness about to hit
Cleveland, it's this: You can't bring a water gun to demonstrate outside
the Republican National Convention, but you can bring an AK-47.
As tens of thousands of Donald Trump supporters and opposing activists begin arriving for next week’s nominating convention, law enforcement officials say they are ready for anything. They’ll have to be.
Despite the city’s temporary bans on items as innocuous as tennis balls and bicycle locks in downtown Cleveland, Ohio state law will allow demonstrators with radically different viewpoints to legally open-carry handguns and rifles as they encounter each other outside the convention. And it’ll be up to a multi-agency police force of thousands of officers, and demonstrators themselves, to keep things from getting violent.
