On Thursday December 17, 2015 I tried to go to the Maricopa County Court House to use the Library. 

Conrad Chavez the cop who searches people at the entrance to the build told me that I could not come into the building because I had a small pocket knife. Conrad Chavez also refused to check the weapon.

I thought that there was a law that said if the government refuses to let people enter building with weapons that the government had to check the weapon for them.

I think I may have found that law. I think it is ARS 13-3102 A.10
