I think they are on an A Type Visa as opposed to a Type B.
Makes we wonder about a couple of the students I had when I was teaching a FM group class at Pensacola.... I thought the scowls were just because they couldn't understand me.
I remember dismissing the class (8 officers,,all purportedly devout Muslims) early one day and blithely spouting: "Grab a beer and enjoy the scenery...er..uh...oops..heh heh..."

... And they all got drunk and went to the petting zoo...
IMHO, the Bill of Rights applies to citizens of the US, I definitely would not grant ANY rights to someone with diplomatic immunity.
is that what they called the strip club?
The petting zoo WAS their strip club.

I dont believe so. They would be on a Saudi govt passport, but are not diplomats. Same as when our military travel overseas.

In MD, the only people allowed to carry a sidearm while hunting are in Western MD during early deer season (because of bears).

In FL, you can carry a concealed sidearm anytime you want if you have a CWL. If you want to open carry, you can do so without a CWL if you are traveling to or from a hunting or fishing expedition. I know my sister carries her sidearm each and every time she goes out hunting because of the wild pigs alone.

Had a conversation a couple years ago with someone who had to take a couple of Brazilian military liaisons up to the MVA to get licenses, related the rings the had to jump through. They had diplomatic visas and the clerk couldn't find Brazil on the drop down menu for country because they were reading the passport that was in Portuguese, menu in English. Also talked to one of the local Aussie. His visa was a diplomatic type.
The only reason I included diplomats is because I can't imagine being a diplomat to another country, say Benghazi, and not being armed at all times. I would think diplomats to our country should be allowed to carry in their embassy and it's grounds.
I saw in the hometown paper that DOJ/FBI wil be holding a presser today announcing that the shooter did have ties to al-Qaida.
Where's my shocked face.....?
