But taking a gun into the MRI room is just stupid.
****
I agree! I have had MRIs in four different facilities- three hospitals and a radiology center. In all four, I had to remove my outer clothing and put on a gown or scrubs and remove all of my jewelry (wedding ring, watch, and even my crucifix) before they would let me enter the MRI. Everything was locked in a locker and the technician had the key on a counter in the control room.
Both the technician AND the cop messed up.
I wouldn’t dream of bringing a firearm into a place like that, off-duty cop or not.
I have had only one MRi, but i had to tell them i had a hip replacement, but i was getting the MRi of my brain..
