Checking for guns in unexpected places...

Last time I went some years ago they stop you at the entrance of Canaveral National Seashore Park which houses Playlinda Beach (for the nudists) and ask if you have guns/explosives.

When you go in you can clearly see why - the space shuttle is just a stone throw from there. Me thinks they want the rednecks not to use it like they do many of the street signs - for sighting in.
 
A week after 9-11 I needed to get into the hospital at Fort Carson, Co.
Daughter was having a baby and her AF husband was locked down in Saudi.
He was supposed to leave there the 12th. :cuss:
All the soldiers at the main gate at Carson were decked out in full combat
gear, with weapons very prevalent. After the full search we were escorted
by an armed guard to our daughter's room in the hospital.
I was just glad I had stopped by daughter's apartment and dropped off our luggage,
including my CCW, before we went to the hospital:uhoh:.

The Georgia Aquarium and the Coke building next to it in Alanta, Wild Advertures in Valdosta.
 
I was headed home from a week long business trip and agreed to squeeze in an extra meeting, that was right on the route I normally took home. It related to a "being a good corporate member of the community" deal to help local fire, ems, and LE with a communications issue. The meeting was to be at the offices of some non-discript sounding "Regional Development Council". I have been talking and emailing with the people involved for 18 months, but this is the first opportunity for us to meet fact2face.

Their office turns out to be a generic looking office building among a bunch of other similar buildings...until I walked through the font door to find metal detectors and a guy holding an M-16 on the other side.
