No, your not reading what I am saying. I am describing a rare situation. How would we know a firearm is in there in the situation I describe?

lol as to your other comment, yes, sometimes locks are left off. I know I have done it. It does happen. Yet, you also know we cant put someone's lock on another persons bag. Or are you suggesting 2 wrongs make a right?
