My wife and I went to a concert at a 10,000 seat auditorium, and as we were entering, there were police patting people down. I was carrying, and they pulled me out of line and confiscated my S&W 342PD. (I got it back after the concert).
These were municipal police officers, not "event security".
The experience was pretty upsetting. It hadn't occured to me that I would be patted down upon entering a concert, and I wasn't breaking any laws. I couldn't just leave, as we had pre-purchased our tickets at over a hundred bucks, and driven over a hundred miles one way for the show. I really felt violated.
Has this ever happened to you, and if so, how did you handle the situation?
