A nice OC Experience
Hello, all:
I just returned home from taking a friend to the Greyhound bus station on Main St, by the Freemont Street Experience.
I must confess that they do have a sign prohibiting firearms on site, but I did not see it due to the glass being tinted and the sun was reflecting on it. Also, the sign is small.
I was there for almost an hour. I stepped outside for a smoke, and as I was going to re-enter the building, I saw the security guard motion to me. Here's what was said, verbatim. I remember, because it was short and sweet. As he was talking to me, 6 police officers arrived from the security guard's call about a MWAG.
Security Guard: "Are you a LEO?"
Me: "No."
Security Guard: Do you have a CCW?"
Me: "No. I don't need one"
(The police arrive)
Security Guard: "There he is!" (Steps back, to let the cops arrest me)
The police takes one look at me, at says: "He's cool. No problem here"
I thanked the officers for their knowledge of the OC laws and professionalism.
The security guard was shocked! It was then mentioned that the no firearm sign was posted on the window, but they could see that it was not possible to see it thru the tinted glass. I promised not to re-enter the building.
I wish all officers were that great!
PS: I took a picture of the sign, but don't know how to post it.... Uh, help?
