You might as well have turn around and left as soon as they asked to look in your wife's purse.My wife, daughter, and I were just refused entrance to the Irish Fest b/c my wife was carrying her pistol in her purse. We are both properly Licensed. I asked to speak to a supervisor, who came out and told me it was a private event and firearms were not allowed.
I asked to speak to his supervisor or a law enforcement officer, to which he only put me on the radio with someone, who repeated the same "private event, you can't carry"...
I asked them to show me in writing their policy of no handguns, which they were unable to do. Even on their website it doesn't say to leave your guns at home...
Is the Irish Festival allowed to deny entrance to lawfully carrying patrons?
Did some research of the current law, and my non-lawyer guess is "I guess they can keep me from carrying a gun at their event" b/c:
Sec. 4. This chapter may not be construed to prevent any of the following:
(10) For an event occurring on property leased from a political subdivision or municipal corporation by the promoter or organizer of the event:
(A) the establishment, by the promoter or organizer, at the
promoter's or organizer's own discretion, of rules of conduct or admission upon which attendance at or participation in the event is conditioned; or
(B) the implementation or enforcement of the rules of conduct or admission described in clause (A) by a political subdivision or municipal corporation in connection with the event.
