WELL, SO MUCH FOR TOLERANCE AND DIVERSITY FROM GUN OWNERS.
I am currently at a training facility where everyone is disarmed at the gate. It is one of the FLETC facilities and other than while training at a live fire range, the only people permitted to have a firearm or ammunition within the complex are the contract security personnel.
I find the irony of a base full of law enforcement personnel being disarmed, mildly humorous. It is sort of like taking weapons away from the military while on base. [Flower]

What happens if a gun is placed into an MRI machine?
It gets stuck to the side of the machine till they turn the power off.
I have heard the urban legend about an MRI causing a pistol to discharge. I have never been able to find a reliable source for the story. Maybe MythBusters should do the experiment for one of their shows.
the exception makes the rule:

pretty interesting discussion of the mechanics of a Colt in an MRI.
It's my position that anytime you have been disarmed by firearm prohibition at any public facility, whomever made the decision to prohibit self defense is now liable or responsible for the people's safety at their facility.
If somebody that usually carries gets attacked going to and from a sports stadium, I would support litigation against that entity for taking away a permit holders ability to protect themselves. NFL, MLB and each facility be it Sports Authority or Coors Field has now assumed the responsibility for your protection by not allowing you to carry or providing a place to store your gun when at the game. CCW holders have been every bit as scrutinized and background checked as the average police officer that is carrying inside that same facility.
I have had to suspend carrying this entire year at the Rockies games, because of the metal detectors. Never felt a need to be armed during the game inside the stadium. I always feel completely vulnerable when walking to and from the game. Have bought ticket packages every year for over ten years. I thought would try it for this one year, this was the last year I will buy Rockies tickets.
Sort of a hot button issue with me, sorry for the mini rant. I just can't stand arbitrary Gun Spree Zones.
Bars and casinos. Intoxication and gambling just don't mix with firearms well.
