Last night was an interesting one. My mother gave me a call at about 7pm asking for a ride to the ER. She has been ill for many years, and runs a great risk anytime she gets a flu bug or infection (we are still waiting on this one), so my wife and I blitzed her over to the hospital.
We arrived without incident, but in my rush I forgot the hospital is a no fly zone for ccw. It's "concealed" carry for a reason...so no harm no foul. A few hours after our check in at the triage station things started to heat up. I heard a nurse in the room next to ours start yelling "security, call security! He's throwing blood and fluids at me!"
The whole ER went into lock down in an instant. Apparently the man in the next room over was a narcotics seeker who got caught. He responded by attacking the nurses on staff in the hall. Our nurse came and drew the curtain closed, but I was more than prepared to protect my family. it was reassuring to know he would not make it into our room.
This is why I carry.
