I was thinking about going to the county fair this year, and picked up a brochure about it. I started reading the rules and regulations, and found this:
Rule 11 REALLY made me mad though:
You can even bring pets, of any kind, as long as they are leashed. I mean somebody could bring their pit bull and that's okay, but I can't carry a weapon to protect my wife and 10 month old son.
I will NEVER go to this fair unless they change these rules.

Franklin County Fair Rules
5. NO weapons permitted. No one shall enter the fairgrounds carrying a weapon of any kind. This prohibition includes persons licensed, by state law, to carry concealed deadly weapons, and all other persons who are not law enforcement officers required to carry weapons to fulfill their duties.
Rule 11 REALLY made me mad though:
They say I can't carry a weapon, even though I'm a CCW license holder, but if somebody goes crazy and shoots up the place, including me, they are not libel for it.11. The Franklin County Fair Board will exercise every reasonable precaution to safeguard the public, exhibitors and exhibits, but positively will not be liable for death, loss, theft, damages or injuries to persons, animals or property on or around the fairgrounds.
You can even bring pets, of any kind, as long as they are leashed. I mean somebody could bring their pit bull and that's okay, but I can't carry a weapon to protect my wife and 10 month old son.
