My job doesn't allow employees to carry but I carry anyway because I was attacked and almost abducted leaving the job. My safety is more important than company policy.
Consider OC spray as a viable option as well.
@@pauliexcluded1 OC spray? I've never heard of it. What is that if you don't mind?
@@milliondolladivabritt92 Oleoresin capsicum….it is just pepper spray.
@@pauliexcluded1 Ahhh..duh I should have figured that out lol
Damn right
When someone asks me why I "need" anything; I tell them I don't have to show a need in order to exercise a Right.
It’s not government-given
It’s not even god-given
It is your right just as a human being to protect yourself
Oh, I prefer the response: "I "need" it because you think you have any business to even ask me why I 'need" it.
Not only that but also, like the saying goes, _"Better to have and not need, than to need and not have"_
All I need is what I want.
I tell em’ it’s none of their business. Or ask why they have so many fire extinguishers on their walls, even if they don’t have any. ..lol.. guns are only scary to the people that are ignorant to them. I’m way more afraid of getting stabbed than shot. Knives have an excellent track record for being deadly, as well as daggers and swords. 🤔🙄
Ive daily concealed for the last year at work. Nobody knows. They dont need to know.
My coworkers know, but it’s only because they also do and don’t give a shit.
Most workplaces have this rule so their employees don't go unhinged and start shooting people. Since it's been known to happen lol
.y friend works for a company that has a sign outside saying,
"Firearms are not permitted on premises ",. The new owner blacked out, "not"",.
@@stompingpeak2043used to only be the Post Office. Lol.
@@toddtravis2596 yeah but we have too many nimrods and morons that freak out if something doesn't go their way or someone hurts their feelings at work. The days of just yelling or fighting at break to settle problems are behind us. I hope you understand that alot of people can't handle the responsibility of having a gun in many places. Even if they pass all the paperwork. Or not everyone can hold restraint
Any business that does not trust its customers to be armed should be avoided.
I do my best to avoid businesses that are anti-gun such as Half Price Bookstores and Whole Foods. Those environments become soft targets for criminals.
So, 90% of public businesses?
?? How can you trust people you don’t know? Only a fool trust random people with a gun. That doesn’t mean I don’t respect their right to self defense…. It doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate the patron that may come to my aid if a bad person does a bad thing. But I don’t “trust” anyone. In my establishment you will never find a sign denying your right to carry concealed. My employees may be armed…I don’t know. I don’t need to know.
The owner of a business has the right to make that call.
Thats just fucking stupid. Hospitals should be avoided? Ok great advice, so helpful lol
@@HaroldGodwinson24not really
Why I carry a gun? Because the last time I carried a cop all day, I got a hernia.
Not saying I don't support your right to carry... But sometimes funny jokes aren't helping.... Guns don't stop bullets, body body armor does.... No one ever talks about wearing a plate carrier to the grocer, and I find that interesting.
@@onceagain227 do you? Have you worn one?
@@Pipizzakitchen I'm not the one here pretending to be a superhero...
@@onceagain227 I didn't say that you were. I'm not sure what you're pretending to be.
I'll pretend it was a reasonable question. Wearing a plate carrier around anywhere but an active combat zone is a terrible idea for more reasons than I can count. A great way to ensure you're the first target and will be fatally shot is only the most obvious. It wouldn't save a life in any situation but an open firefight or a stormtrooper level sniper attack.
People who carry do so to protect their own life and their family's. They aren't looking for an opportunity to be a hero and go to prison.
@@Pipizzakitchen repeat after me. Guns don't stop bullets. Armor stops bullets . If you were truly looking to "protect" yourself. you would wear armor. Like a footballer wears a helmet to protect themselves. You carry weapons, to assault a threat... This is the opposite of defence. Terminology is confusing, I know.... And that is why we should avoid silly jokes.. are you following along?
Being fired is better than being dead.
This is something people never stop to think about, and sadly it gets people killed in these gun free zones which are the highest danger zone you can be in.
Yup👍🏽
@@offworlder1 Thats what the criminals are counting on the " gun zone" signs just tells them ROB ME
@@offworlder1 "gun free zone" should have a sign next to it "no crime allowed"
Amen
ive carried at multiple jobs that "frown upon" it.... its concealed....it stays concealed....id rather get fired and find another job than have something happen while im stuck in the job environment without my gun
Well if I conceal carried where I work (ok, I telework 95% of the time but sometimes I have to drive into an office to get certain things done) which is considered a Government location/building and got caught, I not only would get fired but would probably get arrested as I believe that is a felony. That's not a "consequence" I'm willing to accept.
Company firearms policy are suggestion ,kinda like sunblock
I work at a job that doesn't allow employees to carry but does allow customers to and I carry everyday.
My company says no guns or weapons, I carry concealed every day. I will not risk my safety by not carrying. If they find out and fire me so be it
Where I work and somebody puts a backpack into the work truck. You don't ask what's in that backpack. (Might be lunch, might be drugs, likely a gun). if a backpack goes into a work truck and the guys leaving town for a week, I guarantee you We both know it's in that backpack..... We all know what's in there. We don't ask questions nor do we answer.
A law repugnant to the Constitution is void. Chief Justice Marshall in Marbury v. Madison
I live in central GA (about 25 miles south of Atlanta).
I rarely come across anti-gunners, but about 25 years ago in my early to mid twenties, some young friends and acquaintances would ask why I’d carry in such a relatively peaceful area.
I’d always say the same thing:
“How many times have you heard a person say something like: ‘I can’t believe this happened here!’?”
That ALWAYS made them pause in a major way!
Great point!
It’s better to have and not need then need and not have when life is on the line
My personal response is “Because we are a soft target. If someone want to do something bad, are they going to the areas where people are on edge and possibly armed or will they go to somewhere ‘nice’ where they are more likely to be able to do what they want?”
One thing I never do when in a public place is sit with my back to the front door!
Ever since I first saw the movie Ronin, decades ago, starring Robert DeNiro. The opening scene where Roberts character examines the new building he’s never been in before to meet people he’s never met before and plans everything. I’ve never gone into a place whiteout knowing the exits and always park my car by the exit of the building (sometimes checkouts are by the exit but the entrance and carts are on the other side for example. I park where I get out and make a longer walk to the entrance. Pros and cons but still I think and plan my entrances and exits.) restaurants are the same but I park a little closer to the exit of the parking lot not the door. If something happens everyone tries to get out at the same time. Think after a sporting event or concert. If your car is by the exit you leave sooner and don’t wait in a line of cars.
When I served in the Navy and especially while on shore patrol we learned to never sit with our backs to the entrance.
Head on a swivel, know all egress n exists, always take a seat agsinst a wall, so that u are facing the most used entrance. While seated start scanning your neighbors. "Who's likely carrying, who's body language is off" etc.. Always park close to the exit of the parking lot and always back in while parking so that you face out
Agreed! Always back to a wall with a clear line to an exit, and head on swivel 24/7. Habits of growing up in Detroit in the 80s and 90s.
Whenever going out for dinner, etc. My ex would invariably sit in a position, facing the door. I'd always have to remind her that I have more experience and training. Thus, I sit, facing the door. (Because, I had superior situational awareness. Though, she carried too.) I also had to remind her not to take 5 minutes getting out of the car, after parking. I think my instincts were correct. 🤷🏾♂️🤟🏾✌🏾👌🏾🙏🏽🧡🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Always care more about your life then any job or building.
Tell that to all the people who took the vaccine to avoid being fired😊
@@anthonygallo3576 That was their mistake, not everyone did.
@@anthonygallo3576 Their choice to make.
I worked at a gun counter in a farm supply store and was told I was not allowed to carry my own sidearm (I carried it concealed) I also worked at a gas station as a opener at 5am and they tried to make me sign a paper saying I would not have a firearm in my car on company property. I knew the law and I informed them that by state law I was allowed to have a firearm in my car on company property and would be nothing they could do other then fire me and if they done that there would be legal issues for them for terminating me because of the firearm in my car, state law said I could not have one on me at work if they said no firearms while working (I carried anyway seeing how I would go into work alone in the morning to open the store it was for my own safety).
Did you sign it?
I often sign saying “not withstanding the above, I wave no rights afforded to be under the law”
@@richeyrich2203 I crossed out the part where said I could not have it in my car and wrote down the information that stated I was allowed to under the states law and informed the Manager of this as well before I signed it and informed her that state law trumped the companies policy and if they wished to fire me I would follow up with legal actions against the company.
I have been armed everywhere. I’ve gone for the last 40 years except for on an airplane or the courthouse and nobody’s ever even known it.
The company I worked for and the one I work for now make it clear they don’t want their employees carrying firearms, it’s funny how I still do so and have never been penalized. If I can get away with it, what’s that policy going to do for me when someone with ill intent does it too?
I really wanted to buy the IC380 but the company shut down. Would've been perfect for those anti gun work places.
When I worked at Google and a friend ber optic engineering company, I wouldn't trust the employees to be responsible with fire arms and be uncomfortable working. We already had armed security at the entrances.
The guys that concealed or open carried around me at social gatherings were way too casual about their holster being in my face while I was sitting nearby or talking about their EDC.
If you can't be an adult about gun safety, don't bring your gun to a party or don't be drinking. I'm just tired of idiots with guns.
@@evilparadigm I rarely talk about guns, and when I do, I never talk about if I’m carrying or not. Never needed anyone to know I was carrying.
@@poorlittlebiker6476 Well thanks for being responsible.
A great story on knowing your surroundings. When my wife and I were just dating, we were at a bar and I told her to get up and move immediately, she was kind of pissed at me at first, didn't know why I was telling her to do something and then a few minutes later a fight broke out and knocked over the chair she was sitting at. I told her later I was sorry but I didn't have time to explain what I had already seen. I knew what was about to happen.
I hope you aren't carrying in bars.
@@user-kp3eq1uj8e no, I was not carring in a bar. Just an example of always knowing your surroundings.
@user-kp3eq1uj8e In my state, carrying inside a bar is legal.
It's legal in my state
I carry in bars.
One rule: Keep it a secret until it isn't a secret anymore. Then, keep your mouth shut, because the people sworn to protect and defend will (probably) try to set you up for failure. Collect yourself, and consult a lawyer.
"Law abiding" is not interchangeable with "good." There are a lot of good people who are getting tired of tyrannical laws.
do 25 draws before leaving home for the day in your selected clothing, this allows you to makes changes and corrections before going out the door, focus on correct form 25 times doing it right first then gradually pick up speed, slower with consistency is better then a fast sloppy draw that looks different for every draw
Love it!
Slow is smooth and smooth is fast
@@carl6153 yep, that saying I hear often
@@carl6153true!
Great advice, its also good to do draws from various positions like sitting in the car for example. Would hate to fumble during a carjacking or some other emergency
excellent vid! On point with idealism behind Concealment!
Unless it is a government building, I blatantly ignore private businesses and employers that say "No firearms allowed".
If I am at work, my firearm is concealed. Nobody will know I have it unless the time comes to need to protect myself or others. If it comes to that, defending mine and my own is way more important than keeping the job.
Same with the hotel I am living out of now. They forbid firearms, but I am living here and refuse to not have my firearm where I rest my head. Again, they will never know I have it unless it is necessary to defend myself. If their security fails to the point I need to defend myself, I would leave anyways and blast the hotel online for both their firearm policy and how it and their security failed to keep me, a paying guest, safe.
I do not drink anymore so I do not go to bars, which are the only private business establishments in my state where the law tells you not to carry. Other private businesses can request you leave, but that is all that happens.
At the end of the day, bad guys ignore firearms restrictions so I might as well do the same. No way is a criminal going to have an advantage over me because of some words on paper.
Good video, giving things to think about or maybe didn't consider
Great advice. Situational awareness is always my first line of defense. We need to be reminded of these things continually. And unfortunately, when all else fails, we carry to defend and extricate ourselves from life threatening situations.
I learned while I was trainng up for Iraq
Excellent advice and video
"I've got my carry gun..... Now I need an AR...."
4 AR's, 2 AK's, 3 shotguns, 7 handguns later......
Where'd my money go?
Lmao
I have a JD and I have carried in TX since 1996. You are a great teacher!
Great video I learned a lot from it thanks 🙏 GOD BLESSED YOU 🇺🇸
Great advice brother. I love how you encourage us to carry everyday but also take caution if we're not in the right state of mind. Solid advice! I'm about to start RV full-time and I've got a lot of homework to do with traveling and carrying. Thanks for making my education enjoyable. 👍🔔
Watch out for the New England states, IL, and NM. All the other states in the 48 u should be ok in. I believe Hawaii has some weird pew laws there too.
Awesome content man. Good rules to live by and very informative. Well done!
One thing I would bring up concerning Constitutional carry States is this. If you live in a Constitutional carry State, and DO NOT have a CCW, and you travel to another Constitutional carry State and are carrying concealed you may be breaking the law. Even if the State you are carrying in has reciprocity with the State you live in that reciprocity may ONLY apply to individuals that possess a CCW. In other words just because 2 States are both Constitutional carry doesn’t necessarily mean that the State in which you are not a resident recognizes your right to carry without a CCW.
I have a friend who learned this lesson the hard way.
Im about to be traveling with the same circumstances you mentioned. when you say CCW, you mean a license? I know CCW means concealed carry weapon. Also I don't understand how reciprocity isn't respected
@@tommielandry4040 Yes, I’m referring to a license, different States utilize different acronyms for their licenses. In the State I live in they’re referred to as a CCW. I know other States refer to them as a CCL, or CWL. As far as the reciprocity thing goes, I don’t understand that either. Commonsense would dictate that 2 States who both allowed Constitutional carry (especially if those 2 States were neighboring to one another) they would automatically allow individuals who were residents to carry from State to State, but that’s not always the case. What makes this all the more confusing, and somewhat dangerous is that there are some States that do have reciprocity when it comes to Constitutional carry. Of course the solution to all of this would be a Federal law that allowed for Constitutional carry.
@phillipsheppard5361 I heard at one time that after all the states go to the Real ID, that included in that, will be whether or not u have a CCW and that basically having a CCW is gonna be your "federal law" right to carry everywhere without this issue. This is part of the reason that some states are fighting doing Real ID.
Excellent educational video 🙌🏾✊🏾
Getting my first gun this week, a Taurus G3C. Loved this video and always looking for coherent content. Thank you.
Great video a lot of important info! 👍
Gun ownership and carry is definitely a lifestyle! Keep bringing the informative and well presented videos !
I was a skeptic about red dots for a long time, but my near vision is getting so bad now that without my glasses I literally can't focus my vision on the front sight. Red dots (or green, in my preference) make that a non-issue. After you get used to shooting with dot sights they're light cheat codes.
I live a half hour away from CA - I completely stopped going
Appreciate the comment in regards to politics you are spot on with that,, I myself couldn’t care less about politics until I started getting into firearms and realized it’s important now especially since I live in California one of the most anti-gun states in our country unfortunately,, I definitely became more aware of politics because of my passion for firearms.
Any business that says you can't Open \ concel carry they just lost your business / ask for the Manger or the owner of the store and ask them if they concel carry and if they say yes to the Question. Then them saying you can't carry Period is Invalid. .
I don’t lock my doors and leave the keys in all my vehicles. In rural Virginia. These are becoming very dangerous habits. I work on a farm of sorts, no one there cares what you are or are not carrying. The owner actually prefers that I be armed , he knows exactly zero about firearms and would be in trouble if he needed one and no one was there. He leaves his doors unlocked as well. I always knew things would degrade to the point it has and even worse is coming. Your video maybe my turning point to break these bad security habits I have formed.
Rural Kansas here, I do the same and I need to break that habit fast. Doors unlocked, keys in the ignition, and half the time multiple windows are completely open.
Your Right, “it’s a way of life”. 🇺🇸
Great video!
Avoid and deescalate conflict
if only that always worked
@@CELRahk That's exactly why we carry.
My fiancee always insists that he sit facing the door when we go out, it makes me feel very safe. He served in the Army for 8 years.
I carry everywhere. Home,work, on the road, stores, everywhere. If you c9nceal carry nobody will ever know youre armed. I carry to protect myself, my family, and my fellow neighbors. Self defense is my natural right whicheber firearm i choose. Damn anyone who says i shouldn't or carry somewhere.
Another unwritten rule- YOU CAN NEVER BE THE AGGRESSOR- best just to walk away knowing that the situation could escalate.
“Your not allowed to carry on the job” (🤓) mfs when somebody dangerous comes in (they have nothing to protect themself with)
I rather to be judged by twelve then to be carried by six period ❤ 7:46 good advice brother
I carry because as a trans woman im not going to end up on the news for being attacked or let alone even killed for being myself ill end up on the news for protecting myself :)
Good points made. I carry a kinda small compact 9mm pistol with a 5 round mag. Keep in mind that I'm a college student so most of the day I'm sitting so I needed something that won't dig into me while sitting 2 hours with 15 minute breaks for a whole day.I can't carry like a full size beretta glock 1911 or any of these. I might need to get something a little bigger later.
Cross carry sling bag with a quick access pocket for concealed carry helps a lot. You gotta shop around to find a decent one, but it's worth it. If you compare the time it takes to lift your shirt and draw and to pull a zipper down on a pocket and draw, as long as you only keep your concealed carry in that pocket the draw time is the same. The average person just assumes it's a messenger bag. Only people in the know will realize what is really going on with the attire, and they usually are supportive. Whenever I enter a store, the security usually gives me some kind of acknowledgement of respect. I put some amazon packaging in another pocket over the concealed carry pocket so the outline of the piece isn't seen from people. You can also carry extra mags in other pockets too. It's one of the best decisions I've ever made to carry all the time without having to spend money on all kinds of different holsters to accommodate different kinds of clothing.
@@Itsallsotiresome great
Idea I've tryed that my issue is that it's illegal where I live and the bag also shifts around so the draw isn't consistent. Sometimes I still do it like when I don't want anybody to even have a clue about the gun like when we are visiting a factory with the class or something. But as soon as I can I get it back on my hip I will. I will get something bigger tho for outside the campus carrying I was thinking the cheapest still good quality 1911 that I can get I'm a sports shooter and I can shoot those really well tho they are kinda kick I can manage it. I'm kinda afraid that it's too much "gun" for me as a 19 year old to handle.
@@gamingandroid277 Thanks. Well, better to be judged by 12 then carried by 6. What I do is I grasp the bag with one hand, quickly down the zipper with the other, and draw with the same hand that downed the zipper to keep the draw consistent. I have one of the kind where the zipper is up towards me and my main hand so it's a quick smooth movement with practice. 1911s are nice, but the capacity on the classic ones are a negative to me, and the larger cap modern versions are way too expensive for my budget. I'd suggest a compact or sub compact with at least ten round capacity and an internal striker fired one so there's nothing that can catch on anything during the draw. But it's just a suggestion. It's your choice. I just prefer the bag overall. I hate not being able to eat as much as I want without discomfort while I'm out, or bending down because of the piece jabbing me in the stomach, and how it limits body movement like stretching without it being noticeable. Hip carry is too noticeable on me while concealed so it's not an option. And if people assume it's a "murse" then all the better because it gives the element of surprise if I ever do need to use it in self-defense. Best thing to help with the kick on any handgun is increased grip strength. You can buy for pretty cheap these days a grip strength trainer from amazon. Have a good one.

I was recently at a government jobsite and it was federal charges if you got caught on property with guns, booze, meds that weren't yours or expired. Anything. They would even search our lunch boxes using the light on their rifles to look inside. Terrible place and I drug up after not too long
Love the 5 case of water example lol
Excellent video
Please continue do a part 2.
I was doing work at a secure facility recently and my car got randomly searched, including K9 sniffers. Even though the state was safe to carry, as soon as I got in those gates, it would be straight to jail. They even made an important director pour out an unopened bottle of expensive wine because they found it in her trunk. So much for birthday dinner. Couldn't risk it.
Many years ago, when Kentucky first enacted their concealed carry statutes, Levi Strauss & Company, who had a warehouse in Florence Kentucky, decided that they would ban carrying even in one's car in the parking lot. So one morning, when employees started arriving for their shift, they were met at the door by security guards and escorted to the cafeteria IIRC. Then each employee was escorted one at a time to their car by a couple of guards and compelled to allow his or her vehicle to be searched. If a firearm was found, then the employee was escorted to the Human Resources office where their employment was terminated.
This resulted in a lawsuit.
By the way, Kentucky had a law on the books, way before concealed carry licenses existed, known as the "Protection of Travelers" law which permitted the storage of a loaded handgun inside one's car at all times.
The lawsuit did NOT go the way Levi Strauss hoped it would. As a matter of fact, the judge in this case, in his ruling, held that, if an employer prohibited an employee from storing a handgun inside his car, that act essentially prevented the employee from exercising his 2A rights!
By the way, I ware Wrangler jeans. Wouldn't be caught dead in a pair of Levis.
You just have to be mindful of where you are and who you’re with. I spend a lot of time in slums because of my work. You have to make yourself come off as someone not to mess with. I live in a really bad neighborhood and can’t afford to move. Get some books from USCCA and or US law shield since they have a ton of information for you that you Need to know before you defend yourself or carry. Stay safe out there and please be vigilant and mindful of the laws and neighborhoods and the people you’re around
I’m glad you mentioned that these guns retain value 😂
Funny I thought of each of these when I wrote my bad times shopping SOP.
I went to subscribe and found out i already was lol. Great video.
Living behind enemy lines in the PRoNJ, I do not announce gun ownership unless I know they are 100% pro 2A. I am openly pro Second Amendment. If I go to the range alone or with fellow 2A people, I will bring my own. Being divorced, if I bring my adult children with me, we rent. They do not know I own. I do not need the hassle of the other side of the family starting trouble I cannot afford.
Man that sucks! But good on you for still choosing to defend yourself and to do what you believe is best regaurdless! I am and have been lifelong pro2a , My mother believed in freedom and self defense she actually got me into firearma very young been owning my own and ammo since age of 7 , My mom ironically
Knew nothing about guns and wasnt too interested,BUT she knew importance of defense , And thankfully entrusted me from that age forward to basicaly
Be the armed defender of the Fam , my dad was Ok with guns but not full freedom he always agreed with restrictions ETC thankfully my mother loved freedom, regaurdless of her interest in firearms thankfully she allowed me to believe in freedom and do my own thing , Cant imagine not having firearms since i been 7 to now (mid thirties) at least three occasion has saved my life and others without me ever having to fire a shot! Amongst just feeling of being able to defend myself and my loved ones and not depend on the next man? Thats a human right! And restriction? There should be ZERO! Criminals dont abide laws! And if all my semi autos magiclt were full auto? Still be sitting my safe not killing people (unless legit self defense) just like have for last 25 plus years! Object blaming ie crazy, But people, Are way more crazy tho so ofc blame evil and ACtS of evil men (and women) not the objects they choose to inflict it.m bexause ironicaly rhose same things are ONLY way to properly be able to defend and ENsUrE your own safety (and fam) period ! Just like Nukes, Dont like em! Dont have too but WE MUST have them otherwise be at the mercy of those that do! Much love man ! Keep doing your freedom thing! On top defense guns been hobby/passion of my life! So much fun and enjoyment collecting and shooting guns! (Check my channel i do gun stuff if interested!!)
Another reason to make sure to use your carry ammo is to make sure it feeds in your firearm. Especially in 9mm and .380. Going from FMJ to an ammo with a flatter tip can make a huge difference. I ended up having to polish a feed ramp for one firearm to get it to eat 147 grain or hollow points. Just make sure.
The opening scene of the 1998 movie Ronin taught me a lot. Biggest thing being, know what you’re walking into and plan for everything else. Just a movie, sure, but if you get a chance watch that scene with Robert DeNiro and how he acts going into a unfamiliar building to meet unfamiliar people.
Keep it on you or put it in your locker when you get to work. Dont leave it in your car. Bad guys break into the cars at my old job all the time because they know noone will be around. My car was broken into and they tore it up pretty good but didnt steal anything. They even left a spare magazine. The car next to me had his wifes prescription sunglasses stolen though... cost me 70 bucks for a new window.
I carry because its my right to!
Excellent video n opin7wth carry conceal or open as a gun legal and ready to rock n roll all the information that is highlighted in this article and I am thankful for your channel it's like having a great shooting buddy n drinking some pabst beer after a shooting gun range day exchanging info and the way you handled it n up 👍💪😯😮🔄🔁✝️🇨🇱🇨🇱‼‼god bless Texas we lovem deep n stackedem cheap 😅
I've only had a couple jobs that didn't allow me to carry at work.
Some as company policy, others due to state and federal law.
Rideshare company prohibited carrying a firearm while working, but since I worked 12hr shifts on Fridays and Saturdays, my firearm was with me since craziness can happen.
I've got hours of footage of insane misadventures while doing that job.
1 grew up in the mean streets of Chicago in the 60s and 70s. Learned to have my head on a swivel but not be paranoid and Chicago has gotten 100% worse than back then.
Rather be judged by 12 then carried by 6
In Virginia, the "gun free" stickers don't actually hold any value unless they are posted in areas mentioned by the law as being off limits.
my job has no rules about carrying weapons, so I shut my mouth, keep it concealed and magically its all legal :)
I guess, depending upon what the local laws are like, I always figured that, if I've got a pistol (or shotgun) locked inside of my own personal vehicle, out in the parking lot at work; I won't "advertise the fact" that it's there... Like you say; if'n when the NEED for a firearm arises, as long as a man (or woman) KNOWS that they are "in the right"... If I were to "get fired" from the job, for breaking company policy... I was looking for a job, when I found THAT ONE!
Worked at an innercity Starbucks in NE Ohio. No law against it, but definitely against company policy. Manager hired me after several snowflakes because the store "needed" someone like me (she claimed "straight, and an ability to get rough"). Only people that found out was a few experienced investigators, a few pointed at it once and mentioned to keep on carrying. Luckily my snowflake coworkers didn't register what they were referring to. Never was an issue, never drew it. Now, OC spray...never sprayed it but...a different story.
Because he mentioned it, i would like to point out that if you are one of those people (nothing wrong with it) that only wants one gun it would be best to buy an exact copy of the same one gun, and heres why say you do unfortunately get into a self defense/home defense situation the police are going to take that gun and now you are without a gun to protect yourself but you still have the extra mags and ammo and a holster, but now if you have already bought that replacement you are set and not defenseless.
I want to make a note on the Political bit that you mentioned, because I totally agree. I largely vote on the left side of politicians for my own personal beliefs in terms of rights. However I recognize that that can sometimes seem counterintuitive for gun rights. However, I've found that, like you mentioned, if you look into their actual voting record during their tenure and in between election cycles, the people who want to take away your guns sit very evenly on either side. Just because Trump is the conservative favorite doesn't mean he isn't vehemently anti-gun. Just because a dem advocates for trans rights doesn't mean they don't believe they should be able to defend themselves with an AR. You HAVE to look further than red or blue and IGNORE those two determiners.
I also STRONGLY URGE PEOPLE not to be in the Anti-2A STATES..if you have family in them states have them to come to you
Wrong
Stay in california and work on making it better. Instead of breathing all my air
@GlobnarTheGreen lol I agree
We as Americans need to start fostering a culture where carrying AND using a firearm is not seen as a taboo.
Why do you "need" 20 pairs of shoes, or 5 purses? etc.etc.
I've been carrying for 45 + years. I've been to a hole lot of training classes.I've bought a ton of red dot sights.
I have never found one that could be a better target shooter. I can shoot a lot better with plain sights.
Two is one. One is none.
Love the Mechanic's of a gun
My County doesn’t allow lights or red dots on your CCW. Super frustrating.
Set it to green then.
@@HisMagnificence Lolol got em.
That Is some bullshit!
Where is this?
That's weird. I'd be willing to believe you if I could verify it. What county do you live in?
I carry a gun, because cops are just too damn heavy....
Unwritten rule - Research everything you can about the gun you want/heard was good for someone else.
You do not want to go through the pain and hassle from buying the wrong thing for you!
My man has the Calvary cross exactly on the same spot I do❤ my reaper isn't on my hand though (ironically my hands been shot) but I carry mine on my tricep 😂
I carry when it was illegal and I carry now . We are constitutional carry now . And I still carry when the stores say no .
To protect life
I'm glad to work for a privately owned business, with the owner being a conservative that carries. When he found out I also carry, we just ended up talking guns for an hour and he was grateful that I take security seriously.
When asked what would happen if I ever had to use my firearm to defend myself or my coworkers, he just laughed and said, "your job isn't going anywhere and I might even give you hazard pay." Lol. Super good man, which is why I love this job, even if I could get paid better elsewhere.
It also helps that my coworkers and manager are all pretty awesome too.
LOL i used to be the SA of a Motorcycle Club formerly in your area, and then SA, VP and P of a Club up here, you want to talk about being Vigilant, we get taught that starting day 1 prospecting. i'm no longer in the club world but i act like i am wherever i go, i know all the Exits, i have my back to a wall and eyes on the door so i see who comes and goes, walking my head is on a swivel and riding and driving i know who and what is around me, even at home I have a dozen camera's that give me a chime when it detects Motion inside and outside of my house. Laws i Live in New Hampshire, Constitutional Carry and stand your ground and Castle and the most gun friendly state i have ever lived in, we can even ignore no gun signs unless it's a federal building or courthouse, the only thing a place can do here is trespass us and they have to go thru the legal process to do so, we're lucky up here Vermont to the west and Maine to the East both Constitutional Carry, Vt does have a 15 round max in the magazine, so if i go there i have smaller mags for my Springfield, and Maine is just like us except some nutball laws passed after the Lewiston shootings but they are for buyers and Maine residents not me as a NH Resident. Then we have Marxistchusetts to the south, you step 1 foot too far south and it's 10 years in prison.......but a few times now Marxistchusetts judges have tossed out cases vs NH residents in mass near the border. thankfully i'm retired so job is not an issue but i always carried just was more discreet at work (Harley dealers) My personal every day is the Springfield XD-9 Defender, proven police and military pistol and i have several smaller backups. As to bolt ons and red dots i have no use for them to me they are more high tech nonsense that will fail when you need it most train and practice with what you have a screw tech !! Any gun law is a violation of the 2nd !! Here in NH there is no such thing as a Bar, we have Restaurants that serve booze, but i don't drink and weed use is a federal offense and a felony for lying on the 4473. it's the Bill of Rights, it's Not the Bill of Needs !! non of someones business why i buy anything
You dont have to accept anything.
The idea of being an advocate for guns matter. So many people now days are slightly scared of guns when really its irrational if youre not dumb. Ive lost friends due to one to many edgy jokes and rightfully so but ive always stood by safety standards.
I got a question what if you're a maintenance man in a complex are you allowed to carry another people's apartments I can't find anything on that can you help with that in California
The tenant that's on the lease has to directly inform you that they do not want firearms in their "home." Only enforcable if they call the law and make the complaint. This was at least true 3yrs ago before I moved out of CA. There might be something on the new anti concealed cary law (i forgot the name). It generally covers public places, not sure if it addressed inside homes of others.
As always concealed, means concealed. Theu should not know your carrying to begin with.
I shoot target ammunition that mimics my defense ammunition so that way I train with the recoil and accuracy
Whenever a new concealed carrier asks me “ what size gun should I get to carry”, I generally tell them to get the biggest gun that they think they can conceal and will carry every day. If you can conceal a compact gun and a full-size gun, go with the full size. Just my opinion but that has worked for me since I first started carrying every day.
Night sights, red dot and fiber optics are cool in all but you find your self in a self defense situation your not going to have time to line up sights and target bare in mind your adrenalin is at peek so you need to practice point and shoot for self defense
Think about it if you have time to get your target sighted in you have time to consider other options
If your draw and presentation stroke is long enough for you to contemplate the meaning of life, friend, you might benefit from some more dry fire practice. Have a good one!
@@009013M3 you don't even make sense
Because life happens anywhere
I am very aware of my surroundings. I carry all the time. I'm lucky enough that my job lets me carry. I've had people come in and case the store I work at. They saw my pistol and left.
When you stand at the pump and that advertisement starts going off, hit the second button down on the right and shut that off. We have enough to be aware of without our attention being diverted by some stupid advertisement. You won't stop the video buy you'll silence the volume. Or don't.
Certain places you aren’t allowed to conceal carry usually are the most targeted.. I wonder why hmmm
@6:11 Heyyy that's the same chair I'm sitting in right now. :)
To your first point about vigilance. A person's action will be faster than your reaction. Great mindset to have. Be aware and you can cut reaction time by seeing bad things developing.
True!
My cat behaves like a cat everywhere it goes! With that said, Knowing the laws in each state conflicts with unalienable, God-given, Rights!
