Colts worry bill will suspend stadium gun ban.

I came across this article earlier today. The Colts issued a statement that they are "concerned" that the bill mentioned in the article would allow guns in their stadium. This is no different than any other gun free zone. They disarm the peaceful public and indirectly allow criminals no resistance.

They use the excuse about drunk fans, well it is already illegal to carry a weapon while drinking. Also your state of mind will definitely be brought into question if you had to use deadly force while drinking any amount of alcohol. It is a really bad idea for a drinking person to have a gun in his or her possession. I, however do not believe you should ban guns for sober people because they are in the vicinity of drinking people. I don't even see the problem with carrying a gun in a bar, as long as you don't drink.

What about people getting assaulted on their walk back to their vehicle after NFL games? Why leave them defenseless? If the bill doesn't pass every criminal around will know for a fact that they have a nice bounty of unarmed victims to rob.

It's the rowdy drunken sports fans and the crack-head gang bangers in the parking lot you need to worry about. Not the lawful gun owner looking to preserve themselves and their family. CHL holders are statistically among the most law abiding people in the population. Concealed carry should not be banned anywhere. The concept is universal regardless of the location or circumstance. Gun free zones are good for criminals and bad for victims.
