so tonight a friend and I are going to a concert in Atlanta. of course before heading out I checked the venues *coughs bull***** "security policy" which by no surprise includes being frisked and wanded: no pocket knives/multi tools.firearms or other Personal protection items allowed.... I know this subject has been talked to at LENGTH, but I can't help but feel frustrated. I don't even want to go do things I enjoy because of further encroaching Gun laws... I know some of you will say " well just don't go to those places" but lets be realistic, at this point. what places CAN you go where you can carry without fear of prosecution.
SPORTS EVENTS-NOPE
MOVIES (NOT SUPPOSED TO)
MUSIC VENUES(NOPE)
COUNTY FAIR (NOPE)

I don't mean to rant but I'm just tired of seeing this stuff. what happened to live and let live. I also feel like a sell out for going to these events and voluntarily disarming myself. I may be over reacting but I'm just sick of our sissified culture.

thoughts?

I figure if they do not have people actively checking attendees, then I remain armed in any venue not prohibited by law. I have attended sports events. I go to movies. I attend music events and fairs around where I live. I am careful to conceal and I avoid confrontation. I have yet to have a problem with police.

If they are actively checking and wanding AND providing security, then they are reducing risk to attendees. I have to weigh that against how much I want to attend that event, since they are not securing my person from the home/auto to the security checkpoint.

@atltrader yeah it really discourages me that NO venues (at least in ATL) allow CC. I feel like a total fake to claim a extremely pro 2nd stance and just puss out and Go. but what are we supposed to live under rocks?

Your can at Chastain Park

That's only one part of the problem. I'm still trying to find a situation in which you can use your rights to defend yourself and not go to jail or the poor house.

One evening years ago I had to shut down the restaurant I was filling in at as the manager because a couple young ladies got into it in the parking lot.
The loser bled from the front door to the bathroom.
Find somewhere to put a razor blade. It seemed quite effective.
