Holy cow. Are you serious? You wouldn't go to Chicago because they
won't let
you carry a concealed handgun?

Call it an economic boycott if it makes you feel better.


My opinion only Wes, but it is a mistake, IMTS is a very worthwhile
event to attend.

There are a lot of worthwile things to do with my time. If IMTS comes to
Michigan, maybe
it will make the grade. I've been to some trade shows at Cobo in Detroit
over the years.
You see neat things, collect and trade a lot of biz cards and get a bunch
of junk mail.

I'm hoping the Heller case along with the McDonald case brings sanity to
Chigago gun laws.
I really don't care about carrying in the show since Michigan has a
restriction on
carrying depending on the size of the venue. I care about the rest of the
stay. I've
been in places where the good part of town turns in to the bad part of
town in just a
block or two. Something I wouldn't know about until it was too late if
something goes
wrong.

Expos are always in the grittier parts of the city.

It appears you've never been to McCormick Place, especially to IMTS.



Chicago isn't a safe city.

Aw, what's ten murders a _day_ among friends?

Unless you were planning to take a ghetto tour on foot, you'd have nothing
to worry about.
