Actually, I'm leaning the other way. Folks around here talk
about all the places that say, you cannot bring a gun into.
Well guess what, that makes the place more desirable for a
lunatic to go to and start shooting up folks. It's when you
don't know if guns are present that those lunatics might think
twice. Those playgrounds, I now doubt will have some bad crap go
down.
And we have to know that those folks that are bringing in the
guns legally are doing it for safety. I don't think any kind of
big gun showdown happens at these places.

You can't think it's okay to bring Guns into a bar do you? Too
many fights break out over the dumbest things. Add in alcohol
and adrenaline and that's a recipe for disaster.

My gut reaction... it would be a disaster for a bar. Alcohol
does strange things to folks.
Yet at the same time I could imagine a bar, with all the guys
caring guns. Drunk or not, I find it hard for someone to think
using a gun with 30 guns within feet of you would ever dream of
pulling something like that. Like real life fists fights (vs.
Hollywood), they only last seconds. A big shoot out in a bar is
not going to happen.
They were talking around here about an incident at a Denny's. 5
cops are regular patrons and come in uniform. Some people
'freaked' out about them carrying side arms into the place.
Raised a big stink. Did not want any part of that.
Around these parts, I once thought like that.
Put some more thought into it. Deeper. These guys are cops. They
are trained. They know how to use it. They are safety. In the
whole context of things, I couldn't think of a more secure safe
situation. Why would these police be of any risk or harm by
showing up with guns. They are not going to use them. Just
because an individual feels uncomfortable seeing a gun, that's
on person for that unfounded uncomfortableness.

Cops are one thing, strangers with concealed weapons is
something entirely different. You know what you're getting with
a Cop (for the most part), but with strangers, you have no idea
of their background or mindset. Maybe that person had a sh*tty
day at work, maybe their girlfriend dumped them and they are
drinking their blues away, maybe that same person just got
rejected by some chick at the end of the bar. Way too many
variables for me to even begin to feel secure in an environment
like that. Sure, most people are responsible, but all it takes
is that one match to set off something deadly.
I just hope that California does not adopt this new law / bill.

What the F*ck! Yes, wrong thread.....and yet it belongs here.
Seriously, what kind of "expert" even does something as dumb as
pointing it at one's own head? You can say booze is the blame,
but I think he would have done something like this anyway
because owners (most, not all) kind of feel empowered owning a
gun and therefore become careless, especially when "showing off"
to someone else. In this case.....his girlfriend.

I don't know about feeling empowered. Arrogance comes to mind.
