CCW in movies Why can't you do it?

Sig fault.
Do what?
Carry concealed in a theater? All depends on the policies of the theater. If they have a sign up that says don't, well, you have a decision to make: obey the policies of the property owner and go unarmed; go somewhere else, or disobey the posted policies of the property owner and risk a trespassing arrest.
Any minute now, someone will be along to tell us that "those signs don't have the weight of law," and "concealed means concealed," and so forth.
I carry concealed to the movie theaters every time I go...
I open carry at the theaters not in shopping malls and concealed carry at the theaters in the shopping malls. The only movie theater I don't carry at is the one on the Navy base. Perfectly legal, why wouldn't I?

It is legal where I live. If it is illegal in your State then you might want to work on your legislators. If it is just a sign on the door then find a different theater. If they all have the sign don't sweat it you can own the movie in six months for about the price of two tickets. Would probably help to let the theater know that they lost your patronage and why. Leaving the theater, especially after dark, always put me on high alert.
One local one has the proper signage to prevent me from carrying there and the other serves alcohol for consumption on the premises...thats why I dont.
I can't argue with the signage - private property owner making a private decision. You can always look for another theater that doesn't have such a restriction.
But the no guns where alcohol is served restriction is probably based on your state's law. It's stupid because it assumes that everyone who goes to that theater is going to drink. they could have simply said no carry while ingesting alcohol.
No problem in MN....

Not a problem in my state. I think a couple of theaters down in Salt Lake have some signs, so I won't go to them.
If your state bans them, get the ban rescinded.
I wait for it to come out on DVD or Netflix. I'm not dealing with the movie theater's stupid crap. Overpriced movie watching and overpriced popcorn. Along with no weapons. Ha!
LOL.....seriously.
