the SCOTUS has already ruled that the police have no obligation to protect individuals, but society as a whole.

If the state "grants" you the right to defend yourself (thats a whole different can-o-worms) then in my opinion, anyone who wishes to remove that right thru policy - court houses, air ports, schools, etc - should provide complete security for you while you are under their rules and either provide complete security to/from home/work/etc. on your normal daily errand runs/life, or provide a secure place for you to leave your weapon when under their rules/protection.

For example - I work at a college. If I have a CCP, and the college (or state legislature) says I can't carry while at work, then the college (or state) should be preparted to escort me from home to work and to errands after work until I return home. OR they should provide a secure location to lock my pistol up for the day (campus PD building) and then escort me to/from there to my office, classrooms, etc until I reclaim my pistol at the end of the day.

Oh, and the woman in the article is an idiot- concealed means that, if it was *that* important to her she'd take the stance of "better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6"
