Bring a gun into my place and I notice? I'll take it from you and tear it down and not sure I'll give it back.

I'm not afraid of guns, but I do know everyone does not have good intentions and understand that some men like intimidating or even hurting women. I honestly don't understand some who think they have a need to carry one in during what is supposed to be a playful and good intentions visit. But I'd pay any amount to ensure the choice I made to play in the hobby, wasn't one in which the chances of me needing one were really questionably high enough for me to seriously consider a visit. But hey, that's just me. We all gotta do what we gotta do. Maybe I should put "NO Guns Allowed" in my showcase or something. LOL Originally Posted by MaxiMilyenNo offense, but not every provider has good intentions, either. The alerts forums on Eccie are full of reports of providers and their sketchy male managers robbing and terrorizing hobbyists. You may respond, "Well, but that's not ME!" But aren't you making generalizations about CHL-holders, but you don't want CHL-holders to make generalizations about providers? In reality, no one can predict with certainty what will happen in any given situation. If a law-abiding citizen decides to undergo an extensive background check, take a class, pass a written test and a shooting proficiency test, thereby obtain a CHL, and then concealed-carry, that's HIS or HER choice, not yours. That's the law. btw, statistics show that CHL-holders, per capita, commit far fewer crimes than non-CHL-holders. If you want to see law-abiding men (law-abiding other than hobbying -- haha), then you should WANT to see CHL-holders.

I have learned that some providers are absolute psycho nut jobs. I want ya'll to do your homework. Ask around. Do what ya gotta do to be safe and feel safe. I have this strong intuition I rely on about the gents or maybe even nutty providers who contact me at times posing as gents. So, believe me when I say, I get it! Ya absolutely gotta be on your toes and that's why I don't understand all this rush rush, right now, no screening, beat 'em down with the negotiating junk going on. It's changed a lot since I began. I hate to know you guys have a rough time feeling safe, but mayhap some of you ran off some of the safer ladies? I dunno...I didn't do it. LOL Trust what ya feel if nothing else works. Be safe and have fun.

So while it's MY choice whether to concealed-carry, it's YOUR choice whether to see someone concealed-carrying, and that's fine. Put "NGA" (for "no guns allowed") in your showcase and sig line. When I hobbied, I rarely concealed-carried into an appointment, but sometimes I did. Once it prevented me from being robbed, or worse, and the girl was a top-dollar girl. If I was still hobbying, I wouldn't see a provider who wanted to impose HER judgment on me when and where I could concealed-carry. Originally Posted by ShysterJon

Search Google News for "church shooting".Maybe it's happened, but considering....it's not really a common occurence.....
It is a myth that bad things only happen in bad places. Originally Posted by trexxxs

It makes sense,if you think you might need to use your gun to defend yourself, to keep it on you.
I don't see how you do that when your fucking, save wearing a gun belt around your hip.
Since you don't have control over it, could it not be used against you very easy? Originally Posted by grean
Actually, in Texas, concealed-carrying is illegal in churches under Texas Penal Code section 46.035(b)(6):But scroll down and 46.035(i) states that (b)(6) does not apply unless 30.06 notice is given. Most churches I have seen do not provide 30.06 notice.

Originally Posted by trexxxsI'm aware of the notice provision, but I wouldn't suggest you concealed-carry in a church without the statutory notice, or even any notice sign at all. There are published appellate opinions where Texas courts upheld UCW convictions under section 46.035 despite deficient notice. Do you want to be the test case? Well, you may beat the rap but you won't beat the ride.
