(8,240 posts)that the theoretical "invisible" guns that the poster stated "surround" me everywhere and that I would never know existed, were not checked for in any of these cases. I attended many college classes and was never frisked or passed through a metal detector to do so. Same goes for movie theaters and nightclubs...
A court house is a "gun free" zone as they have a sign telling you of the prohibition, and make you pass through a magnetometer on the way in. I have never seen such at a movie theater.
In short, I think you are full of it.
My gun lovin' BIL who holds a CCWP, would most likely have been carrying at all three venues.
I think these shooters do not face return fire because while the fantasy of carrying is attractive to many, the reality of it as a daily existence just isn't very attractive at all. In short, many people get weapons and permits, but after the first few days or weeks, they leave the weapon at home in the sock drawer.
