Advice needed: Should I carry here??
Hi guys, I posted this on The High Road as well but I assume my response may be slightly greater here. I've totally rephrased my post to ease minds. Let's pose a strictly hypothetical scenario, of course...
Sometime next week a certain entity who is in fact a non-entity, and a hypothetical one at that, is going to be travelling to Rhode Island to check out a vehicle. The problem is that he is obviously not a RI resident, and so his CCW is not legal there. The folks he is going to be seeing, well they obviously don't know each other, and they have a good reason to assume he'll be carrying a decent amount of cash (which he wont be, not being a fool). This fictional character feels pretty naked without his CCW just traveling out of state to a known, safe destination; nevermind going to a crowded city and meeting a stranger with the assumption that he's easy pickin's. What should he do? Stock up on OC? Hahaha. For the sake of argument, this fellow is a clean cut guy, with a very common late model car in good repair, registered & insured, will be driving like a normal person, and shall be conducting legal business. Unless he needs the CCW, there's no reason to assume he'll meet the law, but you never know. He'll be in anti-gun territory for approx 3 to 4 hours. Should one just leave the paranoia at home? If he was to carry, should he bring his tiny keltec 9mm, or his normal carry Sig p220? Reasons? |

So you're asking us whether or not you should break the law in Rhode Island.
