There is another thread here stating about how now in Austin, TX you can pass a metal detector by holding a CHL. This spurned me to ask this question openly;
If you arrive at a building and the place has metal detectors at the entrance: Do you consider this equivalent to a sign saying "No Weapons, or anything else we don't like" or should there be accompanying materials stating strictly the banned items. Also I live in Michigan, so any commentary specific to this state is also appreciated.
I especially started wondering this when some time ago I got to an entertainment venue that had detectors, and was searching bags etc, I forgot I had my 3" folding knife on me (goes everywhere, as a tool not a weapon) when I was about 4 feet from the door. Luckily I didn't set off the alarm and the clip was not on my pocket so I got in without any issue.
So what do you think? Detectors = No guns?
