How are you protecting yourself at the State Fair?

[ryanmercer]

Since you can't carry at the State Fair... how are you all protecting yourselves?

 

[Scutter01]

Pointed stick.

Actually, I protect myself the way I always do. Situational awareness, and training with things besides guns. It's just a tool and you never know when it may not be available to you.

by not going anywhere near that death trap.

I like to carry around a chicken with large talons. Just in case.

I used to never have to worry... pretty safe going into the fair in a police car and parking in police parking... but dad has been dead for 10 years... I try to get there early in the morning so I can park either inside the fairgrounds or in the lot immediately across the street there on 38th where police are 15 yards away.

The State Fair is a classic example of where you should apply the "Don't Ask; Don't Tell" Principle.

yep, I still wont go, but you are correct imho.. Bad guys aren't going to leave them at home because it's against "the rulez".. and it's about the worst area in town, I wouldn't leave anything in my car I cared about, and sure as hell wouldn't drive in unarmed..

And FYI, chickens do NOT like CC.

 

[Paul]

I will just carry concealed.

What Scutter said! + I have a hard shell.

Ok, I've seen this a number of times on this board, and others. The do you carry in XXXXXX place where it's against the rules, laws, whatever.

If you're going to do it, that's a personal decision, but STFU about it.

Lest we forget, the things said online are not secure, nor protected by any kind of privilege or privacy. It’s all too easy for a savvy investigator to tie you to online statements and establish some type of real or imagined premeditation.

Absolutely correct, if for some unforeseen reason that something does happen and it is traced back to this forum it could take a very bad turn for that particular person.

You got that right. I always carry my chickens OWB and OC. I learned the hard way.

 

[sbnewsom]

I didn't know about this. Are you not allowed to carry concealed at the Fair?

 

[jontheturboguy]

Its not a criminal act to carry at the State Fair.

So says Mr. Ciyou.

Not only that, but why would you even want to carry concealed at places like the fair... that are crawling with LEOS, and it is made abundantly clear you are NOT to have a firearm.
