If I was going, I'd be carrying. Its legal and its a chance to educate the cops. I never miss that kind of opportunity. They can not ban the legal carry of firearm son public sidewalks in the entire city.
Is it fear or a pragmatic view of reality? I don't live in fear and wouldn't generalize like that, especially with no data to support that conclusionBecause not all of us live our lives in fear.

I'm avoiding Boston but I will admit I will be getting way to smashed to carry tonight.
The most likely practical implication of a LTC holder declaring he is armed when the wand comes out is being politely denied access to the public area beyond the checkpoint unless, of course, he is black in which case he will probably hear "on the ground mofo".They can do whatever they please! The legality of that is a different matter and would be hashed out in a Marsupial Court at a later date.
This......best way to stay out of trouble is to NOT put yourself in situations most likely to be the site of trouble.
Much rather hang with friends at one of our places
So dont go to any public events? Ever?
Mike
No, the bunker is much more comfortable!!!
He is right though, its generally not worth the zoo factor of most of these things. That shits for the birds. The seagull tourist factor is high, they swoop in, make a lot of noise, and shit on everything. I have no qualms about going to a concert or game or whatever but being around when large sections of the city are blocked off? Even if you're not afraid of the durkas or whatever, the whole thing just becomes this huge pain in the ass.
I say this as one of the few people in this thread that probably doesn't "hate" Boston. Hell I'm in the city at least once a month during the winter probably more often during the summer.... but I hate the large gobs of tourists. They annoy the shit out of me. They take up space and get in the way, consume resources and parking spots, etc. You get stuck behind them on sidewalks while trying to get somewhere. Watch them drive slowly like tards in parking garages, because they're too ****ing lazy to just drive to the first open space, but instead do lame shit like wait for the family of 6 people with ice cream to get their shit together and back out of the spot, etc.

New Years eve, big deal new year same old nonsense.
I'll stay home,can't be assaulted or run over by some drunk sitting in your living room.
Some of you need to unwad your panties
"Why no, in fact I absolutely do NOT want to leave Small Town, USA to go anywhere near a city. Ever. If I did then I might actually see something interesting and ain't nobody got time for dat!"
Do you expect a real response in this thread? There are many Boston "experts" here, as you may have noted.So Does that mean you shouldn't carry in Boston that night even if you are licensed to do so? How can they confiscate if youre legally carrying?

First Night is a terrific event, with tons of early evening events for kids, and all free. Lots of other cool events as well. Usually the weather is pretty challenging for little ones but tonight doesn't look bad. Great fireworks show too.
I think some of you are descended from Puritans, who were "Tortured by the idea that someone, somewhere, was having fun."Have fun!
Boston gets 23 and a half million tourists a year, if someone wants to stay home, we won't miss you.....
