Re: The 2013 Firearms Policy (no firearms at national events)
" I can definitely see how it was construed as a political statement, but I don't think it was meant that way. That being said, I do think that any kind of policy like this - especially involving something that can be dangerous, like weapons - should be left to the local laws, hotel policies, and professional police and hotel security. We have no business getting into the weapon-policing business.
If someone can't handle being around people safely - whether that means manual battery or threatening with a firearm - that should be left to the authorities, not Mensan amateurs."
