The trigger-happiest place on earth?
A Georgia woman got herself banned from Disney World after allegedly stashing a loaded 9mm gun behind a planter outside the Magic Kingdom — and then attempting to blame it on her 6-year-old son.
Marcia Temple, 27, was arrested on Oct. 8 by deputies with the Orange County Sheriff’s Office (OCSO) after her strange behavior was flagged to Disney security by a worker with Advent Health, who was taking temperatures at the entrance, per a police report.
The worker told security she saw Temple remove something from a stroller and place it behind a planter, according to the Sentinel. An Orange County Deputy responded to find a pink purse with a loaded 9mm handgun inside.

When asked about the gun, Temple reportedly told police she told her 6-year-old son to hold the gun while she went to get her brother so he could retrieve the gun and put it back in her car.
“He put [the purse] down, and messed with the plants and I put them back, but I didn’t know he put it down and I didn’t know he left it over here,” Temple told police.
Police say the woman ditched a purse, which contained the loaded gun, just outside of an entrance to the Magic Kingdom.

Andrea Finger, a spokesperson for Disney, reiterated the parks’ policy in a statement shared with Fox News. “Our rules are clear. Weapons are not allowed at our resort,” she said in response to the incident.
Per Disney’s policy, weapons are also not allowed on the premises of Disney parks, nor are guests at Disney’s resort hotels or Vacation Club hotels allowed to carry weapons “of any kind,” even in hotel rooms or public areas within the hotels or resorts.
