How many Rounds can an aassault weiner carry? 10? 15?

Depends on what they were feed the night before. Mexican food or red beans and rice - we're talking belt fed machine gun weiner dog!

If a major chair store put up metal detectors to stop concealed carrying gun people from coming in, what would happen?

chair or chain?

I imagine the guards at the front doors would start using lazy boys to launch giant spit balls.

Proponents of "my property my decision" will run into "my rights" and have their heads explode?

Then avoid the store or respect their wishes. Anyone makes an issue of it is more likely someone wanting their five minute of fame

That is what I imagine will happen.

It will only get worse if the chain store's armed guards face off against concealed carry citizens exercising their "Stand Your Ground" rights.

Who said the guard would be armed with fire arms?

Edit

Why would they be exception to the policy? Pretty much a gun free zone but if you let security carry fire arms then why have the rule.

This is 100% true and not at all hysteric bs.

Listen buddy, this is OT and we will not have a call for sanity in the gun debate here.

Maybe this question has been answered but I did not notice it on the boards. I have seen this issue pop up all over the internet with these guys in places that carry weapons in a place because of the law allows them too even though the owners of those places have asked that the weapons be left behind.

So here is the question

Why are the store operators even letting them into the store, can't the store owners or employees refuse them entry ask them to leave and if they refuse have them charged with trespassing and call the police?

Are the store owners not allowed to dictate what is allowed on their property, hell if restaurants and golf courses have mandatory dress codes why can't these store owners stop these guys from entering their property with weapons?

Because from my point of view these open carry enthusiasts are infringing on the rights of the people who do not want to have a bunch of people carrying weapons that are used to fighting a war in a fething grocery store.

I also get the fact that in the US you have the right to bare arms but that dose not mean you have the right to be and idiot

I would imagine they could since most people might be reluctant to frequent a business where someone is openly carrying a weapon.

Many states allow stores to post signs prohibiting different types of carry. For quite a few of those states the standard "gun-busters" sign won't do. It has to be a specific sign, specific size, with specific language. If you decide to enter one of those places that is posted in accordance to the law you are breaking the law. Any store in any state can ask you to leave for any reason though, and if you refuse you can be charged with trespassing.

Some freedom loving people get upset when other people use their freedom though...

Here is the thing, Freedom isnt true freedom. True Freedom in Anarchy.

There is no freedom in anarchy. The only people who have freedom in anarchy are the strongest or the most organised/richest. Anarchy is a pile of gak.

Anarchy though makes everyone an equal opportunity target.

WHich would be handy Jihadin if I owned a tank or a drone or any weapon other than a blunt kitchen knife.

Access to propane tanks? Maybe scuba tanks? If house hold weapon. A blunt kitchen knife not going to save you from those critters you have in Australia. I'm sure you do not have a "Cirith Ungol" there like we encounter once in Afghanistan. Someone I know made a shuriken pistol that was pretty effective using normal stuff

True freedom is a myth in the mind of a child who refuses to grow up

Real men are all about radical nativist oligarchal republicanism with a hint of facist theocratic democracy

There's no "achievements" one can strive for if true freedom was accomplish. IMO.

Now to Lord. Jebus Brother. I feel elitist now. Wait. I served in Elite Units so disregard

Well, in Texas, if the the scanners didn't permit any firearm, I'd just put it on the list of 30.06 sites and move on. No confrontation or any of that nonsense. frankly if its a business I'd just walk away.

Ever seen the movie "Purge"?

Yes, it had so much potential for a great movie. But nope let's make it about snooty rich people.

They're coming out with a sequel that shows the lower end of it.

Considering 50 people were shot in Chicago this weekend (seriously), I'd proffer the Purge is just a documentary...

I think if the Purge (stupid as it is) were to really happen in Chicago, the death toll would be in the tens of thousands at the least.

Traffic would very much approve in the Chicago area. Though the fee's collected from like nine tolls around Chicago will nose dive.

The purge should have been a very dark movie with societal overtones. One of my friends said it should have been a Anthology movie. With one where a clerk of a small store has to defend his family but I also christian and a pacifist. One about a serial rapist. And I forgot the other one.
