    Ah, you having difficulty reading, "illegal weapons," now weapons, "illegal weapons," unless you are trying to tell us all of Ted's fans are packing illegally

    Are you having a problem with the part that says even law enforcement in a non-working function needs to show ID and people with CCWs have to return their weapon to the car?

    No, those that read "illegal weapons" to mean all weapons might be considered to be "so dumb"

    I'll do better than that, I'll reproduce it for you, "No persons are permitted to bring illegal weapons of any kind into the Berglund Center." Illegal weapons is not all weapons

    yawn. it's not unreasonable to be abundantly cautious to allay very real liability concerns (in an venomous environment that has people looking for any reason to bankrupt folks due to their political beliefs)

    Then why is Nugent performing there? How can he reconcile that Unconstitutional policy with his support for Gun, God, Guts and Glory? Indeed doesn't it turn that enitre venue into a GUN FREE ZONE, one of those liberal invitations to mass murderers to come and play.

    Jesus, a large crowd and probablly ONLY Nugent's personal bodyguards, several guards and possibly Nugnent himself were armed, I'm surprised anyone made it out alive

    Because he didn't want to be accidentally shot by some ******* drunk redneck. That's what should happen to customers at Chipotle and in most regular bars where "open carry" means people are allowed to carry any gun they want regardless of safety and common sense.

    No your ideology is the lie. Your ilk claims good guys with gun will win and the absolute right to walk and carry. Now here it is, and you snowflakes capitulate.

    Don't worry, this BS from your ilk and ideology is old news.

    Perhaps you should have done more research before you posted. Found this on a post discussing open carry in Roanoke:

    http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/showthread.php?58677-Roanoke-Civic-Center-s-Stance-on-firearms

    Subject: concealed weapons
    From: "Robyn.*****@roanokeva.gov" <Robyn.******@roanokeva.gov>;

    Hi, **********--

    Thanks for your inquiry. I hope that I can help clarify any confusion about the firearms policy at the RCC. If you will notice in the content of our website and in the text of posters or signage in the facility, the word "illegal" precedes "weapons." Several years ago, when the word "illegal" was absent from the text, a gentleman with the Civic Liberties Union contacted me about the code because he has a concealed weapons permit and he interpreted our statements to mean that we would not allow him to enter our facility with a firearm. At that point, and at the direction of the City Attorney, we changed all verbiage pertaining to firearms to reflect the word "illegal" so as not to confuse anyone. Basically, if you present a valid concealed weapons permit and you are carrying a firearm, we cannot deny you entry into the facility. However, I would like to point out that we prefer no one to bring in firearms for many, many reasons, and our staff will most likely ask politely if you would consider returning it to your vehicle. We make this same request to off-duty officers and surprisingly many comply.


    Our position for asking is simple: Most events held here are not of the nature to inspire or instigate fights. Firearms are extreme weapons to use should a fight escalate between patrons. We would rather have someone fight the old fashioned way if necessary than with a gun because rarely does anyone die from a fist-fight and the chance of an innocent bystander also getting hurt is almost nonexistent. Our facility has a capacity of approximately 10,600 and if we have a full-house, then anyone carrying a firearm has 10,600 opportunities to do irreparable damage. As most everyone will agree, not all who carry weapons, legally or otherwise, are mentally stable and one way to prevent catastrophe is to remove opportunity. Just a few short years ago, someone with a permit and gun was allowed into a basketball game at the Greensboro Coliseum. He moved around in his seat and his gun went off, shooting himself in the leg. That could easily have been a child or innocent person who came out for a night of fun.


    That said, if you come to the RCC and show your concealed weapons permit, you will not be denied entry. However, we ask you to consider the possibilities of all that could go wrong and keep in mind the reason why everyone you see entering the doors is coming here -- to enjoy sports, entertainment, a show, meeting, or expo. They aren't coming to defend themselves against someone with a gun. I imagine that in the near future, there will be changes to the law to prevent anyone from bringing a concealed weapon (legal or not) into a public assembly facility where there are risks for greater damages (much like a football stadium or gathering of multitudes of people) to innocent people.


    I hope this clears up any questions you may have about our policies and procedures with regard to firearms on this property. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
    Thanks,
    Robyn

    The Berglund Center is operated by the city. And they are bound by city ordinances to allow gun. The show is the one who made the decision to banned the guns. In other words, either Ted or his people made the conscious decision not to allowed weapons in light of the protest. Hypocrites, the lot of them.

    Yeah that's some great information from 9 years ago, meanwhile I posted their current info from yesterday.

    At least your nonsense was within this decade.

    As of now, the website doesn't say you might be asked to consider not bringing it in, it says you will be asked to put it in your car.

    Oh and by the way, if the venue is city property, Ted couldn't tell them they couldn't come in either.

    What's even funnier is anyone could have posted that on some forum somewhere.

    that is a post that is over 9 years ago.. I would think the current policy on there website is more up to date then a random post from a forum that is 9 years old..
