The NRA and their poor record at the National Meeting

[John Canuck]

The NRA has a habit of selecting facilities that don't allow me to carry a gun at their meeting. Since I'm not a member, I guess it doesn't matter, but it's a good way to keep me a non-member.

No carry in Charlotte. They got lucky in Pittsburgh and carry was allowed. St. Louis didn't allow carry, and this year in Houston, only those with a Texas permit will be allowed. Oh well, I'll spend the money on my kids.

CONCEALED HANDGUNS
(1) Possession of Fire arms is forbidden in the Facility with the exception of the following: (i) licensed peace officers and licensed honorably retired peace officers and (ii) exhibitors and patrons during duly licensed gun shows and (iii) individuals licensed by the State of Texas to carry concealed handguns.
(2) A ?Firearm? is defined as any device designed, made, or adapted to expel a projectile through a barrel or cylinder by using the energy generated by an explosion or burning substance or pressurized air or gas or any device readily convertible to that use.
