I don't mean that qualitatively; I mean it with regard to whether or not our circle of friends is fairly homogenous to ourselves in terms of values, world view, etc. I wouldn't be upset by someone carrying in my house, because I generally know and trust the people I invite into my house. They share my values and my world view. In the event that I've admitted a stranger for whatever reason, I am armed too, so....

Neither our friends/hosts nor do we live in areas where our vehicles and persons are subject to invasion, thank Goodness.flechero wrote:Your post is curious to me.OlBill wrote: If I invite you to my house and you ask, it's not a problem.
If you presume, you may not be invited back.
My opinion only... You should assume anyone/everyone is armed and only invite people you trust into your home!
As for guests, I think you should make your wishes known at the invite if you mind them carrying. Don't forget that anyone coming to your home, has to get there... do you expect them to travel unarmed to your home? or to leave weapon in a vehicle, more susceptible to theft?
The majority of my guests are armed... and honestly, I take some comfort in that.

Re: Invited into a neighbor's home. Can I carry?
There it is and conversely, I can't imagine being invited, at my age, to any house where I and my antics, attitudes and foibles are unknown. That said, I'll probably not carry past my vehicle for the sake of MY comfort unless I fear there are scoundrels on the guest list.jed wrote:

Back to the topic, I have no problem with someone carrying in my house because if they are in my house or on my place, I know them very well.

Re: Invited into a neighbor's home. Can I carry?
Silliness! Guns notwithstanding, if you are uncomfortable and/or fear for your life, or the life of your companion/s, why would you accept the invitation in the first place?
I agree with Olbill.
