They're bringing in some new restrictions here in Massachusetts, whereby if you carry a gun on your person, you would have to notify someone before you enter their house that you're carrying. (Eg a friend invites you over for dinner)

The person who was telling me was outraged at that proposed restriction and couldn't understand why I wouldn't want someone with a gun coming into my house without me knowing they were armed.


Why  would you bring a gun around to someone's house?

Getting ready to  leave for dinner at John and Mary's. "Get the  coats, dear. I'll get the shotgun"

Mad.

Friends you might be able to ask, but presumably you could have repair men and the like as well.

If the plumber lands with a handgun he's not getting past the gate.

Re this restriction above. The local Dirty Harry-lite enters your house and:

A. Alerts you to the fact that's he / she is carry a gun (I'm presuming it's loaded). This then I assume either gives the home owner a chance to grab their gun and have it handy incase they have an argument / too much drink / lsd, any other mind altering drug / dual or a slim slim chance to get out of that room and try (chances are extremely slim) to get to their own armory without getting peppered with bullets. Other members of the home owners family could well receive some friendly fire

B: Not alert the home owner (what is the penalty BTW?). Regardless of the penalty, if the visitor skins their smoke wagon and either kills or wounds the home owner, the penalty for not declaring in the first place is not worth a buck.

....kudos to the law makers in Massachusetts.

You wouldn't even know they have it. 

They have all types of concealed carry holsters for depending on what you're wearing.

Ankle holster-long trousers

Shoulder holster-wearing a jacket

Hip holster-hoody or untucked shirt

With all the concealed guns and users about you'd expect at least someone in the bowling alley had a good gun? Or do they leave it in the lockers with their shoes?
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Funny how there are hundreds of good guys with guns now trying to find the bad guy with a gun and they haven't a clue where he is 24 hours later.

https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/apalachee-high-school-shooting-georgia-09-04-24/index.html



Apparently the kid and his father were interviewed by the Feds last year when he made online threats to shoot up the school. Supposedly they had no probable cause to arrest him, but notified the school of their concerns. The father told the FBI their guns were secure.

So even with advance notice there's not much they can do.

Freedom baby!

I wonder will Georgia go after the parents like that (I think) Michigan case last year? Those parents were convicted and went down for ten years.

Also read that the kid left the class to get the weapon, came back and knocked to get in as doors automatically lock, and a classmate noticed he had big gun so obviously didnt open the door, and then he just went to the class next door. Not sure why it wouldnt have been locked or maybe they opened the door??? But anyway, that is a sad and mad state of affairs that you have automatically locked doors in schools.

Read somewhere the other day that America is a third world country masquerading as a superpower. It kind of rang true.

What is this freedom they so proudly talk of? A freedom to kill in the blink of an eye?

That is a myth as we found out in Uvalde

46 school shootings so far this year. Wonder what the total is for the rest of the planet?

Imagine what the place will be like in 50 odd years? The mental health issues for so so many being surrounded by guns, the death count of civilians by guns.. It is beyond insane. But, some are making serious money, so all's good.
