Would You Carry At A Funeral?

I'd carry at my own funeral if I thought I could get away with it.

I'm surprised by the number of people who don't carry because of intimate contact with others. I simply turn my carrying side away from whomever I'm hugging and haven't had any problems. Especially not if I'm wearing a suit, all James Bond style.
 
Emotional people, old grievances, potential tension about who is inheriting what... I see no reason to attend a funeral defenseless.
 
I'd be offended if people thought they couldn't carry at my funeral. Heck, make it an open carry funeral, with jazz music. ;) I prefer happy Buddhist type funerals. But, that's a different subject.
 
I bought a pistol on the way to a wake. I did not want to leave it in my car, so I left the 32 ortgies in my front pocket. No one noticed.
 
Guess it all comes around to who[s being buried.......A local cop was buried recently and all his honor guard were visibly armed. Don't know how many were "undercover" at the same event. >MW
 
Yes weddings and funerals. That's why I have the Kel Tec P3at. It's the gun I carry when I need to deep conceal carry.
 
I thought about putting a Python in my father's casket last August. I only thought about it for a minute though. :) Then I thought about his S&W 649, but I figure if he wasn't going to get his favorite gun I might as well skip it altogether.

Yes, I was armed. A least a few people were. For all I know the former sheriff's widow was.

YES
Funerals, Weddings, grocery shopping, etc.
Wallmart or china world late at night.
Stupid ideas that can get me killed shall be ignored.
As I told a very educated person with the p.c. disease. No I will not unload and put up my m4 /203 when delivering items from the nice location up the road in Tn.

In Mississippi carrying in a church is illegal unless you have permission from the pastor or board members. My pastor carried everywhere and is all for anyone else carrying.
 
I have. Why not? Your biggest issue is going to be the sympathy hug. If you're a close member of the deceased's family, people are gonna be hugging you...whether you like it or not. Enough hugging, and somebody's gonna grab it. So when my mom passes away, which sadly won't be too awful long, I will not carry the thing just to avoid the hassle. Short of that, I'd carry if other circumstances didn't prevent me from doing so...and what those'd be, I'm not sure.
 
I carry in church even if I'm preaching and at funerals. And in this church, I'm not the only one that carries. A few of the ladies in our congregation carry concealed. It's completely acceptable in this community. But I really can't say for sure that it's part of the reason our crime rate is so low.
 
Wife's worthless cousin got killed in drug deal gone bad. I packed at his because all the shady characters there. I just went to lookout for my wife, as far as the deceased, he got what he deserved.
