We always have to keep in the back of our minds our safety and the safety of the participants and bystanders whenever we step out on the court or field.
That could include half the stands at most of my games. Here in "The Gunshine State", weapons at school is a pretty common occurence. It gets media coverage, but there's no real outrage. Likely a reflection of relative ease with which one can obtain firearms here...not meant to be a political commentary, just the reality of this state.
