Disney revises guns-to-work policy (myFOXOrlando)

[bugsbunny]

And I have guns, including a potato gun..which there is no doubt could kill someone even though all it uses for propellent is Aquanet hairspary. You need to treat ANYTHING with respect when in your hand or else it can hurt or possibly kill someone. Running through your house with socks, on a hardwood floor, and with a fork in your hand is no less deadlier than a hand gun!

And just for debate sake since this thread needs to get up to 20 pages before someone says something really stupid to get this locked...... MORE CHILDREN DIE EACH YEAR DROWNING IN 5 GALLON BUCKETS THAN BY GUNS!! All we hear about with guns is that their dangerous to children, but why aren't we banning 5-gallon buckets or making it mandatory there be a warning label AND a lid with every sale?????? :shrug:

 

[SleepingMonk]

I would interpret that to mean that a guest with a concealed weapons permit can keep a gun in his/her car, as long as it is locked and not visible? :shrug:

A Florida resident is not required to have a concealed weapons permit in order to possess a firearm in their vehicle.

POSSESSION IN PRIVATE CONVEYANCE.--Notwithstanding subsection (2), it is lawful and is not a violation of s. 790.01 for a person 18 years of age or older to possess a concealed firearm or other weapon for self-defense or other lawful purpose within the interior of a private conveyance, without a license, if the firearm or other weapon is securely encased or is otherwise not readily accessible for immediate use. Nothing herein contained prohibits the carrying of a legal firearm other than a handgun anywhere in a private conveyance when such firearm is being carried for a lawful use. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to authorize the carrying of a concealed firearm or other weapon on the person. This subsection shall be liberally construed in favor of the lawful use, ownership, and possession of firearms and other weapons, including lawful self-defense as provided in s. 776.012.

The whole thing with the ghetto community and carrying guns is that it is instant manhood, in their minds. Everything is about gittin respect and rollin large. Being only abou 10 miles from Camden, NJ (murder cap of US), I know it and see it. My wife worked as an EMT for years in Camden and Atlantic City (the real AC, not the fluff you see in casino commercials).

I've been told numerous times that I can name any handgun and with 100 bucks, have it by noon. Yet NJ gun laws hinder law abiding citizens like me from carrying. Getting a conceal permit in NJ is basically impossible and would require probable cause and ANNUAL judicial review!

At least in Florida the argument is about WDW infringing on the state law that allows possession. We can,t even address the possession part in NJ.

now hun... you may not be party to that musical movement, but the idiotic action of some of its members shouldn't serve to remove its legitimacy.

i'll stick with my sword collection they work just as well..ok maybe a lil more labor extensive :lookaroun

one more thing Cm's can't have at Disney. There was a bar that a lot of the Canadian, UK and Norwegian CM's hung out at and they had about 5 sets of swords (sorry don't know what kind exactly but the cases looked Asian).

One of the CM's from the UK would plan theme parties at the bar and bring in a lot of traffic so on his birthday they gave him one of the sets of swords. When it was found in his apartment (at the complex where a lot of the CM's are housed) he was immediately terminted for having a weapon. Some of us tried to explain that it was a gift but it violated part of our housing contract so he was sent home.

I have guns, including a potato gun..which there is no doubt could kill someone even though all it uses for propellent is Aquanet hairspary.

A potato gun...many a crazed country party night when someone would haul out the potato gun. :lol: I have never seen someone hurt by it but I can imagine getting hit but a potato projectile would leave a mark

Somehow I think you underestimate the fact that Stephen Colbert knows how to NOT get his face shot off. He's not stupid.

"Don't patronize me, Sir."

:lol:

I'm not 100% sure of that...maybe he just got lucky...this time :lookaroun

This is a prime example of someone who should NOT be allowed to own or handle a gun! He's breaking the second basic rule of safe gun handling. (The first is that you always assume a gun is loaded, and handle it as such, until you have completely inspected it yourself, or a qualified person has done it for you if you are unsure of how to do it yourself.) On second thought, he's probably breaking the first rule, too, unless there was someone on stage who could show him the gun was empty before he picked it up.

Do not put your finger on or over the trigger until you are ready to fire. His finger should be off the trigger, pointed straight, parallel to the barrel.

I'm not going to go into the position of the gun, etc.

That's not a gun, that's sweetness

"What's that sweetness? You're being pointed wrong?"

:lol:

I just heard this story on the local news as I was reading this thread:

Thought it was a little ironic...

What kind of infants are YOU holding?!

My children take after their dad in regards to certain bodily functions. That being said they could clear the room and kill small animals even as infants. :ROFLOL:

Your husband must be related to me somehow.

On one of our WDW trips, my wife and I were in line for POTC and I dropped an "S.B.D." Since I didn't notice any smell at the time, I didn't think anything else of it until we got out of the ride and my wife told me never to do that to her again, and expressed concern that people were going to think that was her. :ROFLOL:

And to think that so many people are worried about guns, when there's people like me and your husband walking the Earth.

No, that wasn't me. :ROFLOL:

I think it was on our April 2007 trip. But out of all the other people in line with us who it could have been, I wonder how my wife knew to blame me? :ROFLOL::ROFLOL::ROFLOL:

if you're unsure of how to check the gun yourself, don't touch it. i would never trust anyone with my life.

too true, it's one thing to know how to shoot a gun but I think you should know how to clean, store, and check a gun before you're allowed to use it.

Years ago a neighbourhood boy who I babysat occasionally took his step-dads gun to a quarry to show his friend how to shoot. They played with the gun until it wouldn't fire anymore and on the walk home they met up with some other kids and pretended to shoot each other with the "empty" gun.

They "fired" at each other a few times with no consequence then the boy I babysat held the gun to another boys head and fired and it went off and killed him.

The boys stepfather was charged for improperly storing the gun. According to the news statements, they found several guns that were not stored or cared for properly. You can't help but wonder about the "if only's"...if only he had cleaned and cared for these guns and stored them properly...:shrug:

I think it should be a part of everyone' gun training to really KNOW how to use a gun which means, cleaning, storing, and what to do if anything is not working perfectly.
