"I have little doubt that some percentage of these finds are just due to forgetfulness, and not to any malign intent."
As a gun owner, a CCW holder and a sometimes open carrier of firearms - privately and publicly - let me state in no uncertain terms: if you forget you are carrying a gun, you have no business carrying a gun.
- d_theorist 11y agoCompletely agreed. Doesn't mean some people won't forget though.
- jackinloadup 11y agoI'm sure in this stance its not that they forgot about the gun its self but when you have something on you all the time like a phone or a ring or a gun in this case. You might forget when you can't bring it into a building. In areas where guns are common place like SW Missouri there aren't a whole lot of places you can't bring your gun so its not always at the front of peoples thought processes.
- hga 11y agoAnd in most of the places you "can't bring your gun" the law in Missouri is such that you can only be asked to leave, and if the police have to be called, the first time it's a wrist slap (although that of course says nothing about trespassing etc.).
