[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 2073408, member: 24583"] Comments of this thread reminds me of an event when I had to go to the Wagoner County Court House last summer to take care of a property tax issue. I unloaded my pockets of firearms and my flat 3in SS pocket knife while in the parking lot. I walked in the Court House door and a gentleman standing at the metal detector says "Hello, do you have any firearms or knives?" I was removing my keys, reading glasses, pen, loose change etc, and stated "No" He stated "Do you live in Wagoner County?" I thought that to be an odd question. I stated "Yes I do" He stated with a stone cold face "You live in Wagoner County and you do not have any firearms or knives?" I again stated "No". Thinking what's the deal, it is a County Court House. I rechecked my pocket just to make sure, thinking, did I forget to remove something and possibility he is trying to help me out, or what? I think he saw me fumbling around. He stated "If you live in Wagoner County you need to have at least one firearm, and it does not hurt to have a knife for a backup." He then paused with a glaring look " It is not normal to live in Wagoner County without firearms and knives." I stated, "Yes Sir, I do not have any on me personally only because I am entering a gun free and pocket knife free zone. I do feel naked." He stated "I know what you mean. Here are your belongings, I suggest you keep your Bic pen accessible. I hope you do not have to spend too much time here. Have a good day." I said, "Thanks." Gathered my keys and stuff and walked on in. I did my business and got out of there. I guess he was just having fun enjoying his job. I was trying to be on guard to obey the law to stay out of trouble. [/QUOTE]
