Where did you see one of their buses that was posted?

I asked them if blood theft was a real problem there.labrat1001001 wrote:It appears to be the case that Carter Blood Care store fronts and mobile buses have posted 30.06 and 30.07 signs. Is there a blood bank in the Frisco/Plano/Richardson area that has not posted 30.06?

I gave blood this past weekend at the gun show at Market Hall and that bus was not posted.labrat1001001 wrote:I only saw signs posted at their Plano office (Parker and Ohio).

Your not spider man. At least I dont I dont think you are. You arent 100% aware of everthing that is going around you 100% of the time.MikeyJ wrote:If you're maintaining situational awareness, how did you get into the position of being sucker punched?Javier730 wrote:If someone sucker punches you and knocks you unconscious, how would you maintain control of your weapon?MikeyJ wrote:If you happen to pass out while you're giving blood, how do you maintain control of your weapon?

My point was that one should not have to disarm because it is possible that you lose consciousness somehow.
Agreed as to the 100% sit awareness. But if you pass out, it's left to the blood bank staff to not only look after you, but figure out what to do (or not do) with a weapon.Javier730 wrote:Your not spider man.

Same if you slip and go lights out at Lowes, go unconscious after a wreck, faint anywhere because of a medical condition, etc. Someone else will possibly find out your carrying and will have to figure out what to do or not to do with your firearm.MikeyJ wrote:Agreed as to the 100% sit awareness.

I wondered about whether they could post the bus, parked on someone else's property. I assume that we are talking about Carter BC. I have posed the question (was the bus posted?) to several who gave blood and have never gotten an affirmative answer. They are within their legal rights to post store fronts. I don't see how that they could go into a church, for example, and even put up temporary signs or drive onto a parking lot which might not even be owned by the same company as the surrounding stores and put up a sign on their bus. Assuming those are all valid assumptions, them posting their store fronts falls well short of "protecting" a lot of what they do.RPBrown wrote: I gave blood this past weekend at the gun show at Market Hall and that bus was not posted.
