I don’t know much about gun laws and safety practices, but is leaving a loaded gun in a locked in a locker in a public gym a good idea?

If fanny packs are outlawed, only outlaws will have fanny packs.

wtf.. who brings a gun to cycling facility.

OK maybe if this was Texas, you might have an argument cuz people carry guns to McDonalds for a burger.

But here?!? Gotta be more to this story than this.

Are fanny packs still a thing? This is the second or third time they have been mentioned here in recent times in regard to people having guns.

It was not at the cycle place. It was a work locker room at Copley Place.
