Re: Open Carry & gun control

Well, Spot, on the one hand you kind of deserve all the
trouble you found yourself in. Open carry is not a problem for
me personally, but you can bet that with the culture the media
has built around firearms, open carry will be likely to cause a
great deal of trouble.

Prairie Dawg is way off base. Private property is in fact
private. However, when you take that same property and make it
available to the general public, it becomes a "public
accomodation" If Fred Meijer Stores are going to have a "no
guns" policy, contrary to any existing CCW/open carry law, and
such policy is directed at all who enter the store, then the
store must give notice of the policy to the general public.
Consequently, they may be challenged on it, if the CCW/open
carry law is a function of state control. The State (issuing
authority) may take the position that only the state may
regulate and make policy as to where or how a firearm is
carried.
