Earlier today I was at the movies and as I was going past the employee who takes tickets I noticed a small sign that read: Firearms Prohibited. I excused myself, put my cc weapon in my truck, and went back inside where I asked to speak to the manager.
The manager came out and I asked him politely 'Does this company really think that a sign prohibiting firearms will stop someone with violent criminal intent?' and that 'as a concealed firearms permit holder I don't feel comfortable leaving my safety to many others besides myself?' He told me that he was shocked I even noticed the sign. He informed me that he is also a concealed firearms permit holder and in his very many years there no one else has even asked about it and was grateful that I did.
He mentioned to me that he has spoken to 'corporate' himself but to no avail, and the corporate policy of 'no weapons allowed' makes him uncomfortable as well. I asked him 'So as long as I don't tell anyone, mums the word?' and his reply was 'You got it, Sir.' I believe he just gave me permission to carry in his theater in a round about way.
More than likely I will choose another theater from now on. I just felt this experience was worth sharing as the manager felt the way many of us sheepdogs do.
Stay Safe, Carry Often.
