I conceal carry unless I am going to the range, in which case I'm generally open carrying. I generally don't open carry for the sole reason of not wanting to deal with noisy people or police.

Not a pilot, but an aircrew member on heavies.

Neither. I conceal to avoid the very thing that video showed. I don't wish to be harassed and/or arrested just because of some over zealous cop who has an ego and/or doesn't know/care about the law. That reason alone. I do open carry occasionally. And it has nothing to do with provoking...

If harassment and theft are public duties, then he was definitely interfering with them. The only crime I saw were violations of 18 USC § 242...by the guy wearing a badge.

Is anyone allowed to bring charges to a grand jury, or are just state prosecutors/district attorneys and the like able to?

The debate in this thread is exactly why there are supposed to be fair trials with a jury of people who likely have different and conflicting opinions. That shouldn't be hard to tell when in this very thread opinion vary from that he shouldn't even be charged to that he should be hung. I am...

True statement. That is why it is called gun control, and NOT crime prevention. Those are two totally different things. Unfortunately it a country full of morons and people who believe whatever they hear, and are incapable of thinking, this is what you get. God help us all. Great post...

Maybe I should reword. "Handle it like an adult", which is what he tried to do. Unfortunately that did not work out well for him, and potentially, might not have been his fault, in the least. Of course we don't know the whole incident, but it is very possible, the guy with the music was trying...

First, I was responding to what YOU said. So please don't be so hypocritical to tell me to do something unless you also take your own advice. What am I suggesting? I thought it was clear, I said the only option he has that doesn't have potential of getting himself in trouble or killed, is to...

Ahh, and there it is. The "who cares about others as long as it benefits me" statement.

Indeed they do. What are these 'extra factors in their favor'? Sounds like some other word... Well, he shouldn't be, but to say he cannot be is incorrect. There are many times where they are looking for a fight. I can give examples over and over. We have a pretty thread going right now...

There is no mandatory gun registration in NJ. Was the sale legal to begin with? By that I mean, at the time of the purchase, were you both residents of the same state, and follow applicable state laws? If so, there is nothing you have to do to take you handgun with you to NJ. There are a few...

Exactly. What I am gathering is 1) if you have a complaint with somebody, call the police 2) if that doesn't work do not ever confront them because a)if you are armed, and it gets physical, you could go to jail b)if you are not armed, and it gets physical, you could end up dead 3)if...

Two things stuck out at me. 1. The shooters wife had previously (3 days prior) called police on the same person for the same noise issue. So that option wasn't going to apparently help. 2. He is being charged with 2nd degree felony murder, which if the article is correct, is a lesser...

It didn't which is exactly my point. Unfortunately that doesn't prevent it from still happening, and it also doesn't mean they are held accountable.

I wouldn't either. But that doesn't mean they are correct. When it boils down to it, in NJ, it might not matter how right you are, or even what the law says. That is the sad reality, as you noted. :(

Indeed. I have experienced cops say exactly that, there are many videos out there that show cops saying exactly that. It saddens me that the response of anybody in authority about doing something they believe is wrong if they are told to do so is "I just follow orders" or "I'm just doing my job"...

So if keeping and using are different, and there is nothing written about using, by your own example, which is presumably that since keeping=to have in your possesion, you must no longer posses those hollow points, so they can't charge you with having them illegally if you no longer have the...

Reading what you quote is usually helpful. But since you didn't, not much else can be said. Nonetheless, I'll quote it again.

If the policy does not carry the weight of law, ignore it, don't mention it, and move on. Don't give them a reason to suspect anything, and the issue won't go anywhere.
