I probably posted about it here somewhere.

I had my pistol in my backpack/bookbag because I had it in there during a weekend trip. Got back in town just in time for class.
Sitting in class, I opened my bag to get my book and saw the pistol.
Just kept a low profile until I got home and miraculously no one was shot by the evil gun which had slipped into the gun-free classroom.

wow, you are truly lucky. i've heard that once a person carries a weapon into the classroom, they're instantly overtaken with the urge to kill as many people as possible.



glad you could control yourself!

I absolutely loathe the fact that upstanding CHL holders cannot carry onto a college campus. My good friend carried on campus after he was robbed at gunpoint in the parking lot of UH. He didn't disclose this fact, even to his nearest friends, until he had graduated and it was no longer necessary for him to visit that campus.

yes, he was breaking the law, yes I semi-scolded him for it but in the end, i feel that it's lunacy to disallow those verified to be competent carriers from protecting themselves while at school.

FWIW, i've found myself forgetting i'm carrying when i have my wife's LCP in my pocket... very easy to do when you carry a smart phone as they're dang near the same size and weight in one's pockets.
