i'm sitting here, reading over the Alabama State Laws on concealed carry: http://www.packing.org/state/alabama/
Part of it says: <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Section 13A-11-59 (b) It shall be unlawful for any person, other than a law enforcement officer, to have in his or her possession or on his or her person or in any vehicle any firearm while participating in or attending any demonstration being held at a public place.
(c) It shall be unlawful for any person, other than a law enforcement officer as defined in subsection (a) of this section, to have in his or her possession or about his or her person or in any vehicle at a point within 1,000 feet of a demonstration at a public place, any firearm after having first been advised by a law enforcement officer that a demonstration was taking place at a public place and after having been ordered by such officer to remove himself or herself from the prescribed area until such time as he or she no longer was in possession of any firearm</font>
Also, in other states i've noticed where its illegal to carry while in Resturants, Schools (Which makes sense) etc.
It seems to me that some of these places might contain the potential for danger. So what do you do, and why? Do you obey the law, or do you do whats in the best interest of you and your family, and discretly carry? In some of ya'lls experiences, how do you feel about people packing in areas where its illegal? In those cases where they aren't breaking a law, yet you find they're carrying. EX. You pull someone over from another state who then politely informs you that they are carrying, yet your state doesn't honor their permit.
I'm just a firm believer that a gun doesn't do you any good unless its always on you. But i do worry about the balance between doing what is SAFE and doing what is RIGHT.
