There is not a big terrorist threat against the Canadian consulate in Atlanta.
I don't know. Their quarters enrage me. Though these days that queen in her undies is probably worth more than George.

Well, the answer I got back from the consulate was about what I expected. Weapons are not allowed on the premises, and there was no mention of any way to secure them at all, which would leave me sticking it in the glove box, I reckon.
Of course, this still doesn't answer the question of whether or not it's legal to carry there... that might require some kind of AG opinion to really answer. Speaking personally, though, I'll respect the wishes of a person or organization who doesn't want weapons on their premises, either by going unarmed or by staying home.

Yea, it isn't as if they sent troops overseas to fight Islamic terrorism or anything. Oh, wait...
How do you construe the Georgia law on public gatherings to include this meeting? To me it doesn't appear to be a "pub,ic gathering" in any way, shape or form. (a) It isn't a metting open to the public, and (b) it didn't seem to me that it would involve anywhere NEAR the number of people contemplated by the law (400 to 500 people).Hey, you do know that this is a gathering, technically, and could trigger the law that makes it illegal to carry at them in Georgia, right?
