Me too. Very very few people are getting into my home. But I don't understand the attitude of restricting entry to CHL's to my home any more than I understand a business doing it. How would that work? Would you ask everyone coming into your home if they have a gun, since most people don't have CHLs? But the kicker to me is this: if you don't trust someone coming into your home with a CHL enough to be armed, why would you trust them or anyone else enough to believe they are telling the truth if you ask if they're armed?"Journalism, n.

Re: CC at private residence
It's an attitude I don't understand. To me it would be rude to suggest to someone I'd allow into my home that I don't trust them with a gun. And if I trust them with a gun why would I require they ask my permission? Someone I don't trust enough to enter my home with a gun isn't getting into my home: period.C-dub wrote:Is it also rude then to enter into another person's business without asking for their permission to carry?

Wasn't there a highly rated movie sorta' along the line of this thread several years ago? IIRC, it was entitled, "Guess Who Is Coming To Dinner".

Re: CC at private residence
Joining this thread a little late but I used to be in the "tell the owners of the house you enter" because I thought it was respectful of their castle. I have since learned that it's best to just keep your mouth shut unless you want them deciding how to best defend yourself when you're coming over to their residence. I guess I have learned that my life is more important than their personal thoughts regarding guns. For this particular person they made it abundantly clear that guns were not allowed in the house after I informed them so I had to routinely disarm in a parking lot and walk in a dimly lit area to their place. It got old really quickly...
I'm now in the camp that if my gun is a problem in your house then I don't want to be in your house nor do I want to be your friend.

Spencer Tracy, Sidney Poitier, and Katharine Hepburn. Great movie, but I'm not sure how it could be similar to this thread. It's been a while since I've seen it.Oldgringo wrote:Wasn't there a highly rated movie sorta' along the line of this thread several years ago? IIRC, it was entitled, "Guess Who Is Coming To Dinner".
