Regarding National Guard armories (see this post below), several commenters have pointed out that there are probably rules that prevent Guard outfits (or the state governments that oversee them) from politically discriminating among the organizations to whom they rent these spaces.

This makes sense. I was thinking of the way the national military works with the movie industry: sometimes proffering all kinds of cooperation for very little money, and sometimes refusing to cooperate at all, depending on whether they feel the movie at hand is something they wish to be associated with. But that clearly wasn’t the right model. (And the National Guard isn’t the same thing as the national military, as two dozen commenters are no doubt poised to point out.) I still question whether local, state, or federal facilities really ought to be rented out for something called “Rock Against Israel,” but I can see how such a thing might happen by the routine operation of good intentions.
