Vet: Just because a guy's got a firearm, he's dangerous?
Cop: Yes sir.
Cop: When you alarm people and they called us then we can come ... and investigate.
Vet: Okay, did you explain to them what the law is, sir?
Cop: They don't care what the law is.
News to me. Can you copy/paste the text of the new legislation that speaks toward open carry?try the same thing in CO and the cop would be in the right. open carry is a very grey area after the recent changes.
18-9-106. Disorderly conduct
(1) A person commits disorderly conduct if he or she intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly:
(a) Makes a coarse and obviously offensive utterance, gesture, or display in a public place and the utterance, gesture, or display tends to incite an immediate breach of the peace; or
(b) (Deleted by amendment, L. 2000, p. 708, § 39, effective July 1, 2000.)
(c) Makes unreasonable noise in a public place or near a private residence that he has no right to occupy; or
(d) Fights with another in a public place except in an amateur or professional contest of athletic skill; or
(e) Not being a peace officer, discharges a firearm in a public place except when engaged in lawful target practice or hunting; or
(f) Not being a peace officer, displays a deadly weapon, displays any article used or fashioned in a manner to cause a person to reasonably believe that the article is a deadly weapon, or represents verbally or otherwise that he or she is armed with a deadly weapon in a public place in a manner calculated to alarm.
It looks like it bans open carry.That little redefinition had broad effects.
So... the bad guys can always, immediately, and discernibly notice an openly carried firearm on a person? Or is it that open carriers are always standing in the right position, right up front, at the entrance where the bad guys come in?...who does anybody think will be the FIRST people they shoot? Yes. The ones with the exposed guns.
