Interesting wording on a gun sign.
« on: January 31, 2018, 12:34:27 AM »
Got my Driver's license renewed today.  Sign on front door of Colorado Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) looks like a No Guns sign until you get up to it and actually read it.  Apologies for the poor lighting and reflections.

Obviously, as a State agency, it wouldn't make sense to violate the State's own law on concealed weapons.  So kind of a cop-out, I suppose, to assuage the snowflake contingent's delicate sensibilities.

I suppose they think that a firearm in an un-concealed holster is on display.  ;/ Is that a legal term? How do they define that? If I carry my phone on my belt, am I displaying it?  ???

So no pulling it out and waving it around while announcing "This is my gun !!!!"

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Only if you want to be gun-shamed.
