    Default People who attend Sonic meets in law

    Stop bringing guns and flashing them like it's nothing.



    I understand this one guy, he has his secured and strapped with safety on, but some of you just flash the damn thing like it's nothing.


    just my 2 cents.

    I guess you didnt see that black guy with his gun hanging out? And that other white guy with one also? I guess you're too busy watching the burnouts.

    The meet in general is getting out of control. I bet the cops are just waiting to burst in and give everyone a ticket and shutdown the meet.

    Even with permits, it's irresponsible. Those are the kind of people who give the good ones a bad name. They go out and act a fool. I could be strapped and you wouldn't even know it. I like to keep it that way.

    They just want to brag that "i be carrying, fool !!'.

    Unless you have a concealed carry permit, you are only legally allowed to carry in full view. If they have a normal carry permit, it does not allow them to conceal it.
    If they keep it in the holster, there should be no issue.
    If they are waving it around, then you should call the police over there, and let them handle it.

    If you are carrying and do not have a concealed carry permit, it is you that is breaking the law and giving the ones that openly carry a bad name. Of course, if you have a concealed carry permit, then you probably wouldn't have made your earlier post.

    About the GA "Public Gathering" law and gun control:
    http://www.examiner.com/gun-rights-i...t-owners-alike

    It was passed in 1870, and was racially motivated.

    I could care less, I'm not going to sonic meet anymore. It is just out of control, and cops won't even do shit. For example, there is area in the parking lot where burnouts are done through out the whole night. Even cops see it and don't do shit about it. They pulled one guy over last night in the parking lot, didn't do anything to him. The guy just came did U turn and did burn out again. And the parking lot is full of black lines, cops suck up there, I think they have too much donuts.

    It doesn't matter if they are or aren't. Just walking around letting it be seen is just an attention getter. I'm not saying this is what happened, but from what I've seen other people do. A dude may have a permit and because he knows he is legally carrying, he wants to show it off.

    Not this kind of event, simon. That refers to more of a sanctioned event. Carnivals, parades, stadium events and the like. Later, QD.

    Do you just have an issue with guns or something?

    Also, what exactly were people doing with their guns? Waving them around out of the holster? or just carrying them?

    Now that is probably illegal, and in that case, you should call the cops if they have them out of the car, and out of the holster. Let the cops figure out if they are breaking the law. I'm guessing that the cops will need to catch them in the act, but that shouldn't be too hard if they are brandishing them.

    I wasn't there when they were doing it, lol. Just saying that they were waving them since the OP said it and a few others did. Sounds stupid as hell.. I do enjoy seeing the burnouts and idiots doing stupid shit. I park all the way away from them, so they don't hit my car.

    It's not the color that makes it lethal.

    This is why I don't go to Sonic. Too many weirdos that think they are hot shit with a hot temper. Anyone who goes there with these tools are frigin retarded.

    The people complaining about them carrying at a meet. If they are waving them around out of the holster someone needs to contact the police. If they just have them in their holster on their person there shouldn't be a problem. Its not like the gun is gonna jump out and shoot you.

    He has a regular carry permit, but not a concealed permit, so it has to be visible, and it stays in its holster. He told me last night that he was up there last Thurs night, and there was a guy up there on Thurs night waving a gun around.

    Talk about owning a Gun and having a permit and having no Idea how it works.

    GA has a " GFL " GA FIREARM LICENSE " if you have one, you can it can carry concealed or Open carry... however the GFL holder feels like.

    How is it irresponsible to carry? Unless you have a guilty conscious and carry it with bad intentions, there is nothing irresponsible about carrying a gun.

    Last I checked, Ga doesn't have a special concealed weapons permit. One licence allows you to carry it how you please so long as it is in a holster.

    Depends on the situation. Public gatherings allow you to carry but you must inform the proper personnel of the presence of the firearm.

    This is completely null and void and does not pertain to this situation since the Sonic meets happen on privately owned property.

    I haven't checked up on the changes in the law in years, as I don't carry to Sonic meets or anywhere else. :-)

    I stand corrected, as the laws have changed over the years. I did just look it up though.

    As for Public Gatherings: The Public Gathering Law was repealed when SB308 was signed into law on June 4, 2010. The Public Gathering was law in Georgia for 140 years and was one of the last Jim Crow laws to be repealed in Georgia.
    http://www.georgiacarry.org/cms/geor...ked-questions/

    The Georgia Firearms license expires on the date on your license, and currently works as Georgia Weapons License.
    And the Georgia Weapons License now states that you can carry concealed and not in a holster.

    I have my CCW permit and i will carry anywhere besides places where Alcohol is sold,Malls,Restaurants,Meets
    I have mine and carry it everywhere I go including bars and public places. I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Of course, it stays out of view from the public.

    Dude, I didn't mean it was irresponsible to carry. I implied it was irresponsible if they were running around (presumed out of the holster/ out in hand) in the parking lot with it.

    You should re-read what I replied to.
    I got free clear tails with my ride.....
