WOW! I have to agree with most of the posters here. (And I am 45-46, maybe 47... Old age affects my memory.)

I have a friend who does not allow gum in his home. Why? Gum has never killed anyone? When I finish chewing it I always dispose of it correctly. He does not want it stuck under the furniture. It is his property, his rules.

It is easier for him to enforce no gum with everyone than have to explain to his kids why Uncle Buck can chew it. I guess I could just give up on him and not see him any longer. I choose to dispose of my gum before I get to his yard.

But I do have to tell you, if you worked for me when I owned my repair shop and tried to get everyone to stop coming to my shop because I suspended you for breaking one of my rules, you would no longer have a job.

The smart thing to do would have been to call and ask "Hey, I am off duty, will I be allowed to carry my handgun with me to this event?"
