+No weapons will be allowed at Stumptown Syndicate events, community spaces, or in other spaces covered by the scope of this Code of Conduct. Weapons include but are not limited to guns, explosives (including fireworks), and large knives such as those used for hunting or display, as well as any other item used for the purpose of causing injury or harm to others. Anyone seen in possession of one of these items will be asked to leave immediately, and will only be allowed to return without the weapon. Attendees are further expected to comply with all state and local laws on this matter.

+## 6. Consequences of Unacceptable Behavior
 
 Unacceptable behavior from any community member, including sponsors and those with decision-making authority, will not be tolerated.
 
 Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behavior is expected to comply immediately.
 
 If a community member engages in unacceptable behavior, we may take any action deemed appropriate, up to and including a temporary ban or permanent expulsion from the community without warning (and without refund in the case of a paid event).
