Irony: 51 Gun Shows in the USA, WILL NOT ALLOW any loaded guns for SAFETY reasons. Yet, we are now talking about arming teachers? We will not allow those most comfortable with guns to carry them around loaded but we will allow staff to have a loaded gun around our kids and grandkids. I find this ironic.
If loaded guns are good enough for schools, they should be good enough for Gun Shows and Court Houses and Hospitals and even Police Stations, it seems to me. Here is a bit of the article:
At most shows, if an attendee brings a personal firearm, he or she must check it at the door and use a tie “so that they cannot be operated, be breached or loaded.”
Some events, like Bill Goodman’s Gun & Knife Shows across Ohio
and Tennessee, even threaten prosecution for those who try to enter with
a loaded weapon. “Patrons who bring loaded magazines or weapons into
the show will be refused entry and may be subject to prosecution,” their
website reads.
