    Exclamation What I took into the Lackawanna County Sheriff's office!

    While this was unintentional on my part I think it leave somethings to be considered.



    I entered the Lackawanna County court house and placed my purse on the metal detector belt and my cell phone on the unit it self. I walked thru, nice detector operator asked me where U was going. I said "sheriff's office" he then asked why. I said to file an application for a concealed carry permit" he gave me directions to the sheriff's office and I walked away into the court house. 20 mins. later I left with my licence to carry.

    I'm glad I was not stopped, however what does this say for the security of the courthouse?

    They probably figured the dollar is so worthless now any way, that it could not pose any danger to anyone

    BTW, what is that metal looking thing with the sharp points that's also in the photo

    Well, IANAL, but if IIRC the law says it's only illegal to knowingly do so. As you forgot, that would make you in the clear. As for the security, it makes me wish I was a female so I could carry stuff in a purse that no one would pay attention to.
