Always have the gun on you, never in your backpack or bag.
When you go to a wedding, ensure and ask the host whether it is a “gun free†wedding. Or ask the host to request for the wedding party to be gun free, or everyone needs to report or “check in†their guns before entering the party.
You must assume as if some random 11-12 year old kid can find it, and accidentally shoot it — accidentally killing himself or herself or others in the party. Prevent the Sandy Hook.
Better yet … if you’re going to a wedding or a party there’s no reason to bring your gun. Keep it in the car or at home.
