Man with Loaded Gun Arrested at Downtown Disney

[NShortino]

I know this isn't in PA, but thought it would be interesting to post seeing as many people on here have probably been or will go in the future to Disney World.
thedailydisney.com
I like how the article includes the "loaded" part in the headline... as if carrying an unloaded gun would make a difference... or make any sense.
The article doesn't mention any problems with having a gun on Disney property, just that the gun was found/stolen, and that the gangster didn't have a permit to conceal it.
Does anyone know the actual policy for carrying in Downtown Disney with a carry permit. I'm pretty sure the parks themselves are off limit, but I don't remember ever seeing a sign posted around the Downtown area.

As far as carrying, I'm not sure but I think the "pay" area would be off limits seeing as how alcohol is served there. Although you should be good to go in the "shopping" area of Downtown Disney.

what does serving booze have to do with people having a gun?

Thinking your speaking of the Pleasure Island section with the night clubs? Those night clubs closed in Sept 2008.

However, FL does have an alcohol establishment prohibition:

(12) No license issued pursuant to this section shall authorize any person to carry a concealed weapon or firearm into any place of nuisance as defined in s. 823.05; any police, sheriff, or highway patrol station; any detention facility, prison, or jail; any courthouse; any courtroom, except that nothing in this section would preclude a judge from carrying a concealed weapon or determining who will carry a concealed weapon in his or her courtroom; any polling place; any meeting of the governing body of a county, public school district, municipality, or special district; any meeting of the Legislature or a committee thereof; any school, college, or professional athletic event not related to firearms; any school administration building; any portion of an establishment licensed to dispense alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises, which portion of the establishment is primarily devoted to such purpose; any elementary or secondary school facility; any career center; any college or university facility unless the licensee is a registered student, employee, or faculty member of such college or university and the weapon is a stun gun or nonlethal electric weapon or device designed solely for defensive purposes and the weapon does not fire a dart or projectile; inside the passenger terminal and sterile area of any airport, provided that no person shall be prohibited from carrying any legal firearm into the terminal, which firearm is encased for shipment for purposes of checking such firearm as baggage to be lawfully transported on any aircraft; or any place where the carrying of firearms is prohibited by federal law.

Florida's private property and off-limit's rules are like PA's - landowner rights prevail.

With the alcohol thing down there - places that are dedicated to the sale and consumption, or portions of establishments dedicated like a bar section are off-limits. You can still go into places that serve alcohol so long as it isn't a bar, tavern, or club, or be seated in the bar section of a restaurant.

I actually showed my LTCF when buying tickets at a certain theme park. I figured if they were going to have a problem it would be better to have a problem then rather than after taking a pile of my money. They said nothing, we had a nice safe day, and all was good.

At least this time they arrested a real criminal.
