Can you bring weapons (GUNS) on the their property? Will a permit to carry allowed entry? Need your comments. Thanks.
I'd forget calling and asking. Just see if you see any posted signage on the property.
If you just outright ask, you might just get someone that is anti-gun and not really speaking for the organization.
Think about Rich's post about Cabellas is a good example. One person at the store says it's an issue, but they clearly have a policy that it's OK.
This is when open carry gets you in trouble. because they see it. don't get me wrong i like O.C. you have to look for SIGNS and NO PRINTING SHOWING in theses places. you have pick your form of carrying some concealment and some openly its a two way street. thank you guys for your comments. CARRY ON ANY WHICH WAY YOU WANT!
I don't think hospitals can out right ban firearms because if you get into a bad car accident while open carrying and get sent in a ambulance they cant stop you at the door bleeding to death from injuries of the car accident
However..., if you make a pracitce of asking..., then, [they] might make a pracitce of placing signs, or worse yet, confronting you asking you to leave or threating Law Enforcement Intervention.
In my experiences, the paramedics will call the police over who will disarm you before you enter the ambulance, along with all of your other personal property usually. I am surprised you think they would transport you to the hospital with your firearm intact.
The vast majority of place with 'no guns' signs did not become that way because they had a problem with people open carrying or concealed carrying. They became that way because the ignorant property owners assume that only criminals carry firearms and that putting a magic sign up will somehow stop them from being criminals on their property.
Very wrong on both accounts.
When I was an EMT (we're talking over two decades ago!), I would transport with the firearm. My argument is this.... how does the person I'm transporting know where is firearm is? Though, it's never been a totally unconscious person.
Would be interesting if there were a few members, open carrying with CCDL shirts and carrying leaflets and letting people know about this INSANE ordinance.
