I would never carry a gun to a game.

I would never carry a gun, period.

I was answering a question directed at me, Scrapper. He was entitled to my opinion, even if it did happen to agree with one already posted.

However, I've gone back and edited my post to give you credit for saying it first.

Most seem to agree. I know Scrapper does.

I might, given the circumstances. But, we can't make this political.

This is for all you Marine Corps veterans. I never take a rifle to a game, but I always take my gun to a game.

WHY would you carry a gun to a game? That's CRAZY.

If you're law enforcement and your job requires it, that's one thing. But otherwise, I see nothing positive in doing that.

If I ever feel the need to carry a gun to a basketball contest, then it is time for me to get out of officiating. I love being an official, but not that much.

I believe it matters. I think we should outlaw Libras and Cancers from carrying guns. They're too unstable.

You definitley should not carry a gun if you have to ask other's to help you decide whether you should bring it or leave it at home and why.

You definitely should not carry a gun if you cannot properly spell "definitely".

Reminds me of this cartoon: a guy is flashing a lady in the grocery store. The lady says, "Oh, that reminds me. I need to buy baby carrots!"
