    Default No fire arms

    I went to PNC field in Scranton tonight for the ball game. They had a big sign listing prohibited items where you enter. Right at the top was "Fire arms." I found that humorous.

    I like when they say "No weapons".


    I'm not planning on attacking anyone with my gun, so it's not a weapon. It's a self defense tool.

    What's not on that list though, are firearms. Interesting. I know there have been court cases brought against them for that.

    The Septa Police Chief Thomas J. Nestel III has made it abundantly clear his police will follow the laws of the State of Pennsylvania. Firearms can be carried aboard Septa transportation according to the laws of Pennsylvania. That does not include Septa employees. Septa has a policy where no employee can carry a firearm aboard Septa transportation on or off duty. You can also be fired if you use Septa transportation while intoxicated off duty.

    At the time your incident happened with Septa, Chief Nestel was probably the only competent person in an upper management position. I couldn't say that back then. They have a good General Manager now Jeff Knueppel.
