    LOL. Good to know what Im dealing with. People wanting to carry guns into public gatherings are the same people lacking the mental capacity to defend their reason why they should and the best retort they can come up with is "you are fucking retarted". Let me know when you go out with your gun so I can stay at home. Preciate that in advance.

    Unless you are watching the movie from a helicopter then no its not going to happen.

    If you use every minuscule risk as a reason to avoid something you must never leave your bed, but then again you could turn onto your stomach when you sleep and suffocate yourself on your pillow. And yes, the chances of a gun firing off a round from a 3ft drop is about the same as suffocating yourself on your pillow in your sleep.

    I think that big ass coke i saw your carrying into the movie the other day is unacceptable, I mean it could have fallen on my little kid and drowned her.

    It takes the average PD unit close to 8 mins to get on scene, another 3-5 to make contact with complainant. It takes EMS/Fire an average of 10 mins to get on scene and about 5-8 for PT contact. This does not included the delay from you dialing 911 to the unit getting dispatched. It takes the human body anywhere from 15 seconds to 6 mins to bleed out from a wound. As danny said I do not trust any one in the world except close friends, my wife and my partner on the ambulance. Other than that everyone else can fuck off.

    I was basing that off what the DOJ and DOT ( yes they are the people that run EMS/FD in the USA) consider acceptable times, I can tell you first hand that it takes me almost 15 mins to get to most of my calls because of how rural my 911 zone is.

    I have been robbed at gun point twice now. I'm only willing to carry to my place or residence and work. Carrying out in public is just asking for trouble. As others have said the carry law is very gray and not worth risking, imo.

    yeah, basically he carries bc he feels like he as to but doesn't like it...if i were him i'd either 1) not carry at all or 2) get comfortable with the gun and the idea of carrying and carry it at all times.

    there's few things as ironic as ppl who get shot and killed when they own a gun and have a permit to carry.....but didn't have the gun when they needed it.

    This is probably the dumbest thing I have ever heard. If I was caught without my Glock and robbed at gunpoint I wouldnt take a dump without it again.

    Carry laws are not gray at all. Only the public gathering clause is gray.

    ive only been robbed at gun point once, and it will NEVER happen again, without the guy being carried off in a bodybag.

    everyone says some macho shit that "oh if i was robbed at gunpoint id beat that mofo's ass" - or something like that. well it definitely doesnt work that way.
    your brain goes completely numb and blank and the only thing you can comprehend is getting away ( at least thats how it was for me ).

    but now having that experience i would say that i have a little bit more of an ability to think and react and make a move if such a situation were to arise again.

    with that said, my pistol goes with me like a grandma and her walker.


    ALSO, the carry law is definitely not gray, only the Public Gathering clause.

    and if you need some more info please feel free to visit :

    I have carried in a theater and many other public places. The key word is CONCEALED. I carry either a 1911 or a beretta 92 with an inside the waist holster and no one is the wiser. Just dont go around like all these kids around here who just got their permit and carry it on your hip with your shirt tucked behind it like your Wyatt Earp and youll be alright. Like the old saying...Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6

    yupyup. I just read a whole thread on 1911forum.com that was sarcastic. Some of the biggest names in 1911 smithing all being sarcastic about how they do stuff and the tools they use, classic funny.

    Well, the two times I got robbed was at my place at work. I must have wrote that wrong, I leave a gun at my workplace and one at home. Not willing to carry in public though.

    i guess in your case you'll have to be robbed at every place in btw those 2 points before you'll start carrying regulary? really don't see the logic in that...what if you're walking out of your house and get robbed? or walking into the door at your place of work? what're you going to do? ask them politely to wait a min while you retrieve your gun?

    Its something I have thought about, but for now I just leave it at home and at work. Step by step man, I don't want to get over my head. It's not like I go walking down a dark alley. I avoid shady places and just use street smarts, and I'm not avoiding because I'm scared its just not my type of crowd.

    I'm just getting in on this but I was the same when I just started carrying. You must get comfortable with it first. Very important.

    get comfortable before you leave the house. You shouldn't use the world as your guinea pig while your learning the basics.

    Here is a good caption that can contribute to alot of the bullshit in this thread. I agree danny, a right not excersized is a right lost.

    "My neighbors are offended by my ownership of guns.

    In order to let them know I am tolerant of their position, I put a sign in my yard:"

    Only two men ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier. Defend your rights or lose them forever.

    Who here has been or knows anyone personally that has been robbed or car jacked and got shot during the process?

    I have had guns put in my face and I've been shot at, never carried in public and have never been injured or lost a single $1 though. I feel fortunate considering the situations and areas I've been in. The way I see it is if you pull a gun on somebody with a gun you're asking for a gun fight, bullets fly, and somebody is going to get hurt or killed...
