This is a follow-up to thread I posted yesterday...
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3033191/posts
From what I'm hearing, social media (Homey don't play that) is all abuzz about what is going to happen to any gun owner that shows up. Typical. What irritates me about this particular gun owners group (I'm not a member) is that they felt it necessary to ANNOUNCE their intentions to carry openly in advance. Stupi. If the is an event that you wish to attend, then, by all means go. Carry your gun. Or don't.

Citing intimidating reaction from opponents, Bad-deal, now they know that you're intimidated into leaving aside your guns.

I’m sure that some folks would be intimidated. Some.

Doesn't mean you can't bring 'em concealed.
That's an intimidation factor.

So Leeson just surrendered. Really, really stupid move.

You have a concealed carry permit and you carry openly you are breaking the law and are subject to the penalties of such. Period. End of story.
To: ButThreeLeftsDo
Sounds like a potential for some really bad publicity.
To: TheRhinelander
Not in Minnesota. It is a permit to carry a pistol. “on or about one’s clothing or person.” The word “conceal” doesn’t appear anywhere in the statute.
End of story.
To: TheRhinelander
"You have a concealed carry permit and you carry openly you are breaking the law and are subject to the penalties of such. Period. End of story." I think it depends on state specifics. Certainly any CCW owner who lives in an "open carry legal" state certainly should NOT be violating any law by carrying openly.
To: TheRhinelander
Bingo! It’s a concealed carry rally... Not an open carry extravaganza.

To: Cobra64
Nope. It was to be an open-carry gathering of like-minded folks in a public place. Perfectly legal and perfectly normal.
To: ButThreeLeftsDo
IMHO, the gun group should go anyway. As individuals. Open carrying.

Legal to open carry here in MN.

People who are afraid to exercise our civil rights don’t still have them.

You have a concealed carry permit and you carry openly you are breaking the law and are subject to the penalties of such. Period. End of story. Check the punctuation rules on that period you just used. MN law indicates that open carry is legal when you have a concealed carry permit.
