Are cell phones like a gun the next wild west? Where you disarm at the door?

That’s a bit over-kill. If something happens you are not going to reach for your phone to shoot someone.

@tinyfaery Actually people reach for their phones to distribute video over the planet to be caught in the world wide web forever. Peoples reputation can be destroyed in 30 seconds.

I just found my old question My memory is getting shaky. At least it is older than one year.

Or at least turn them off, I hate it when someone just has to take a damn call,it is voice mail for.

I had to read the full detail to understand. I think this should be your OP, “Do we need another 2nd amendment for the right to bear smart phones?”

But yeah I think we should be able to carry it. However, it is still illegal to record conversation off the record not in a public setting.

Firstly, having a cell phone is not a right. Secondly, even though the 2nd Amendment grants one the right to bear arms this does not apply in the private sector. A business has the right to prohibit the carrying of guns on their premises (and many business, in fact, do). Third, cell phones are weapons. There’s no disarming involved. If a business requests that you turn your cell phone off it’s an issue of manners and not disturbing other patrons.

Dude, you’re a Canadian. Our 2nd amendment was about re-apportioning the number of seats in the House of Commons.

Don’t get me started…

@dappled_leaves When in Rome. Thanks mods.

[mod says] This question has been relocated to Social at the OP’s request.

Phone=Gun. Sure.~

Put it on “silent” pity cowboys never had silencers on their guns, too soon.

Cellphones are banned from my place of work because a member of staff was caught taking a photo of a computer screen with a customer’s credit card details showing. Needless to say that person was immediately sacked and the police were involved.
