It does not. You are trespassing and violating the law.

You have a right to carry a gun. Unfortunately. They conversely have a right to ban guns from their property.
It's not a violation of the law. It's just policy.

What do you mean wrong? Didn't you just agreed with the premise. There are some people who hate government officials that those officials need to be protected.

find something along the lines? How do you not know we overthrew British tyranny?

You're post doesn't make sense. it's like you were trying to come up with something clever and failed.

I can see you've not been to the TX State Capital in the last 20 years.

They have an express line through Security for people with a Concealed Permit. I just have to show them my handgun license and I don't even go through metal detectors.

You just don't get it. Such signs and policies matter not when I go about my daily business.
Carrying concealed is just that. Noone knows who is carrying and that's why it works.
300,000 people walk about here in Virginia every day armed without incident. Get used to it.

Over 11 million in the country. People are in close proximity to firearms often and have no idea.

Did you say permit/physical search to exercise what you believe to be your right? Why?

I asked you to read the Constitution and come back with your findings (from it). Let me see where you get the ideas from.

It is also the theme of this thread. Get it yet? Ignore that too.

LOL..... you still don't get it?
You argued that arming pilots would have stopped 9-11. One can not prove anything 100% either way but the terrorists planned this for years and would have taken that into consideration and done things differently. It wouldn't have stopped them.

If that isn't your argument, why even mention 9-11?

Again what are you talking about? Findings from or for what?
The fact that we fought against British tyranny? You don't understand that?

Would have stopped the take over of the plane because the pilots would be able to defend themselves. it's about self defense.
Agreed they would have tried a different method since one doesn't bring a knife to a gun fight.

I'm sure the plane is already taken over by the time they reach the cockpit. So pilots with guns would have no affect.
