The firearm could be left at home. But that would mean you didn't have your gun on the trip over to the event or building. That would be a 'trip too far' for Gould though, too risky. Would you hit the beach at Normandy in June '44 without a gun, say Omaha Beach? For Gould, life's a beach like that beach in France. Bad guys are all around and the good guys need to be ready to take them out.

Republican Ron couldn't imagine leaving his Glock home. Not ever. That's why Bill 1201 specified that gun lockers be provided free of charge when gun packers disarm to enter an event or building. Thanks to the veto by Brewer, Ron Gould has some very difficult decisions coming up about his gun and his life.

The gun, where to hide it if he can't carry it, in his life, maybe some buildings, or events, are just too dangerous to visit Glockless....

I don't know, this could be a TParty/GOP issue. Does the God/NRA Given First Freedom stop at the Capitol steps?

Maybe the US House could go carry also. It would certainly add some melodrama to Congress members calling out 'You Lie' or 'Liar'. Under the new rules, the verbally assaulted party could stand, holster hanging ready, trigger finger twitching, hand steady and say 'Prove it!'

A Glock 9, probably short for 9mm, is a semiautomatic handgun, popular as both a service weapon and a personal weapon. A Remington .270 is a rifle cartridge, popular for hunting large game like deer.

Maybe someone was watching A Fistful of Dollars, but it could also be a ham-fisted show of gun-toting solidarity.

It is an interesting question about where one stashes one's firearm before going into a public place that bans them - one's car (or motorcycle, bike or horse) isn't all that secure.
