Well, the 'no guns' cancer is spreading!

Stopped by my local employment office on the west side of Indy today. As I'm walking in, I notice a sign on the door that someone printed off from their computer. If I could figure out how to post the picture I took w/ my phone, I would. (See below, picture added w/ link... Thank you Annie for helping the technotard!)

"NO WEAPONS ALLOWED WITHIN STATE FACILITIES"

My 1st stop after dropping off the wife, was the Statehouse. Went in spoke w/ My State Senator's legislative assistant regarding this. Within in 1/2 hr, my Senator was calling me to discuss it. He was going to see if this was permitted or not. I mentioned to him that if these folks were trying to use the "rule" that was passed last year (or the one before), when the state gov't decided that we were untrustworthy to have guns, knives, pepper spray, etc. in the Statehouse & State Office Building & grounds, then how can we carry in state parks & the buildings there?

Here is the link, if the picture doesn't show;

Well if the let you carry weapons into the employment office it would take away their ability to be rude. They might move faster or not be so smug when helping you.

Sounds like someone is either ignorant of the law, making things up, or just plain lying.

good point.....keep us posted on what you find out

I'm suprised a State Senator is actually looking into it.

Ball up sign, drop in trash

Good for you for investigating it.

I know what you mean! I've told several folks that I have some political aspirations, but do not intend to run against 'my guys' (State Sen/Rep) as I like them!

My Sen is particularly Constitutionally minded.

As far as my National (un)Rep. Andre Carson, well he's just another liberal.

I equate the sign with the tri-axle trucks stating that they 'are not responsible for broken windshields'.
Anyone can post discouraging signs. Backing them up is where they fail.

It's hardly an official document stuck on the window. But I would like to hear from a higher authority than a managing clerk of any state office building. State employees do have fragile egos, so power trips tend to soothe them.

Are you sure this office wasn't in Brookville? Could be ordinance 6 bleedover!!

 

[minuteman32]

I went on in, though, as I wasn't carrying any "weapons". All I had were a couple of guns & a few knives!

They have plenty of free time.

Take the sign down, hand it to the person in charge of that office and tell them that they can't just make things up.
