Daughter is walking the aisle for her masters this Friday. What can I expect? Wands, signs, pat downs?
In today's climate (not the weather) I do not feel particularly like going in unarmed. Seeing the first of my clan get a masters degree is something to remember tho.
Any input?
Navy blazer and bowtie?I imagine that the college prefers a GFZ. But signs and law and all that. I just need to know if they have metal detectors, wands, pat downs or just bored security.
Need to know how to dress for the occasion and all that.
The biggest downside to having to walk back to stash the weapon in the vehicle is, now at least a few know there's a firearm in that unattended vehicle...Well this is better news for me, thanks guys. I am planning to carry and if I have to walk back to my vehicle it will give me time to draft a letter complaining to the university about it.
Well, just don't let it become a big issue. This day isn't about you or guns, it's about you daughter and her achievement.Guess I can put on a show about getting something out of there while I leave the gun there.
Hate the idea that I can not help in the protection of me and mine. If it becomes a big issue I will miss the walk, but I will bitch about it for a while after.
Same experience.I have only seen them used for concerts and Mad Ants games. Never for hockey or other events I have gone to.
The couple times I have had to do this I moved the car quite some distance in the lot. Not a perfect solution but one more option if being observed. Also have a gun safe in my vehicle although not foolproof.The biggest downside to having to walk back to stash the weapon in the vehicle is, now at least a few know there's a firearm in that unattended vehicle...
Just curious - what do you do when you travel abroad?The big issue would be if I was told to get out. I will comply, I will even remove the gun and return if possible. If not allowed back in I will bitch about it afterwards.
I do not accept that a few off duty police, or security guards are going to provide adequate protection for me and mine. I, most likely, can not provide the protection needed in a bad situation, but I am hoping to have the chance.
It's not like I plan to flash my Concealed Carry badge at them. I am grey, through and through.
I no longer do.Just curious - what do you do when you travel abroad?
