G.14 Firearms policy at official AML events
Moved BAKERINK, seconded DURHAM: All operable firearms shall be prohibited from American Mensa Ltd official events.
EXPLANATION: This prohibition will be put into place due to the diversity of State laws, State Weapons Permit reciprocity, hotel policies, and liability insurance concerns. American Mensa has had no standardized policy for allowing firearms at gatherings. This makes it difficult for event Chairs and White Hats to keep up. American Mensa has no specific liability coverage for allowing operable firearms at an event. We wish to maintain necessary coverage for our events and this will not be possible if coverage for operable firearms is included.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There will be no financial impact.

What are your thoughts about this? Pro or con, let our RVC, Cam Smart, know where you stand on this. Or, for those AML members from elsewhere in the country, let your RVC know your position on this. (Heck, you can send it to other members of the AMC if you want, too.)
