Do you CC where/when you are not allowed?

The TTT/KR convo in the The Gun Box thread got me to pondering, how many of y'all carry when/where you are not allowed?


I do, all the time.


It isn't a,"frick them.. this is 'merica, I can carry where I want", attitude. Most the times, I simply forget.

I forgot to unstrap before i walked into the courthouse about a month ago, thank god the county cop working the metal detector knew me or I probably would have been in some real trouble.


Whenever I go out to a restaurant,which is pretty rare these days, (I've been out to eat maybe twice the past 4 months or so), I carry, even if I have a couple of beers. Once again, not as a act of defiance, but I just feel more comfortable.

A few years ago the Lowe's up here had a,"no firearms allowed on premises sign", I still carried, they caught a ton of shite over it and it was removed a few weeks later.

When I was nineteen or twenty I was home for Christmas break, one night I decided to go out with some friends back home. We went to a local bar and we were accompanied by one of my friends who is a cop. While at this establishment, (several drinks into the evening), some a-hole decided to pull a gun on guy that was standing near us. My buddy the cop drew with quickness and told him in a rather stern tone, "you drop it now or you fricking die", dude dropped it and was escorted off to jail. It was that moment I understood how important it was to have a firearm on your person.


Several years ago I had a friend die in the VT massacre, we weren't really close, but he was still a friend. I had other friends in Norris Hall who barely got out with their lives. All of which carry every single day. Those that work in the mines are pissed they can't carry at work, but I guess that's the ropes.

Had another friend get shot to death with a fricking .38,(he must be sooooo pissed he died to some thug with a goddamn wheel gun), that was drunk and didn't want to fight like a man. He left behind a wife and 7 year old son.

I'll be thirty in a couple of weeks and already in my life I have seen my share of violence when it comes to guns. And it seems to be getting worse in this area because of drugs, it sure as hell isn't getting any better


I also carry during mass, I will always carry during mass, Jesus would want it that way.
