Sorry I'm just intelligent enough to know this and don't go around packing heat into a safe neighborhood.


Using your metrics then gun free Zones should be super safe too right like 0% crime right? Well let me tell you otherwise...

Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) released a revised report showing that 92% of mass public shootings between January 2009 and July 2014 took place in gun-free zones.

I haven't known one person who has been put up to gun point or robbed by thugs in a safe neighborhood. Only thing I can think of is a friend of mine was once in a Wal-Mart parking lot when some thugs started shooting at each other in the middle of the lot. If "Johnny Badass" were there and pulled out your gun while they were shooting at each other, you'd probably get shot as well.

Hate to break it to you, but the bogey man isn't around every corner looking to mug or kill you. If he is, then move to a better neighborhood.

Good for them, I don't fault businesses for not wanting guns on site.

You keep saying liberalism. It was the company that decided to do this, not the government.

Since when does "gun-free zone" mean "safe or good neighborhood"? Go to the nicest community in every major city and tell me the number of people that are mugged and murdered by thugs.

Well, that's the place to have a gun. That is by far the most likely place someone is going to try and mug you if you take the proper precautions. Going out in broad daylight shopping at a mall and then getting a nice dinner, I think it's ridiculous you feel like you need to be packing heat at all times just in case.

I don't feel that way. I go unarmed every day of my life.

I'm more talking to Mr. "If you don't carry a gun with you at all times, then you are stupid and a liberal pussy and I hope all businesses that don't pack heat burn to the ground".

If you feel the need to carry a gun at all times then you have issues.

This is good. Now if someone was going to rob and kill an Uber driver or passenger they won't because it's against the rules to have a gun.

I understand the need to have a gun in your bedside table or your glove compartment, but if you feel the need to take your gun with you when having lunch with your friends at Houstons, you're just fricking nuts.

Uber banning riders, drivers from carrying guns


Uber cars now free-fire zones like schools and shopping malls. Uber drivers now officially targets for criminals.

So is Uber going to pat everyone down? What wil they do if you did bring your CC weapon. Tell you to get out? Ohhhhhhhh. Yes, I feel much safer when I don't have a weapon on me to protect myself.


So now every criminal or psycho will know the uber driver is unarmed and can not shoot back if they need to.


Now the drivers and passengers can both feel unsafe. Liberal retard policy at it's finest.

Not to mention the fact how a person who drives a car with a passenger sitting directly behind them suddenly just became a target because he's prohibited from having a weapon. How do you think such a robbery/murder would happen? "I challenge you to a duel, driver. Draw your weapon!"
