Unless asked about other items I would not volunteer any other information about what I may or may not currently be carrying. The last few times I did attend the State Fair I did what Carlson does and simply said that I need to see the officer without telling them why. None of the officers have asked about knives or anything and I didn't tell them.surprise_i'm_armed wrote: ↑Thu Oct 19, 2023 3:48 pm I attended the Fair a few Fridays ago. I informed the entry staff that I was LTC and was carrying. They walked me over to a Dallas PD officer in an elevated booth. He asked for my DL and LTC, which he examined. He asked me where I was carrying and I told him right front pocket carry, which was OK with him.
I told him I usually carry a knife or two, plus pepper spray. He said that it was good that I didn't have them that day, as I would not be allowed entry.
Kind of funny.......on me I had my 9MM with 12 + 1, plus a spare 12 round mag. But it would have denied me entry if I included my usual EDC gear on me. Because.....security!

The makers of the walkthrough security posts were 100% sure that their devices would have detected the BG's handgun.
So I guess he was a guy who simply used an alternative path to enter the fair.
He is NOT an LTC holder, according to the news. Does anyone know details about the handgun he used?
