I'm sure if they were naked bicyclists or a gay rights parade then there wouldn't have been a problem.

Portland - the place hipster go to retire

I think people are missing the fact that the two charged weren't charged for a gun crime. They were charged for disorderly conduct. Which is basically a catch all when the cops don't have anything else.

Might not of been the guy with the long gun. I think alcohol was involved, so maybe this dudes got the ticket for something unrelated to the original call.

You have a point and, as we don't have a lot of details, it is just speculation at this point as to what and why.

I know one of the guys involved through a friend of a friend, when I get a chance I will get the details. it probably wasnt a Portland hipster Portandia type person that called it in, it was probably a more conservative person as I saw the picture on Facebook on how they were dressed. A hipster wouldn't call in on an hipster, some one annoyed with hipsters would though I think. But who knows. If I get any info on it I will share it. It was over kill for sure and the caller and the Portland police both over reacted even with the news ramping up mass shooting anti gun coverage it didn't garner this type of attention IMO.

I think the city should have to build huge bold signs right at the city limit/entrance stating what you can and cannot do in that said city just like in a park. Even public transit that heads into the city.

Just because our cities look open and friendly..well not portland all I see is a facist subtle militarized zone.

Every city is different and really the only way to know is to look it up (which sometimes is pretty tasking), calling the city leo..etc.
If there was a huge warning sign saying they didn't want my interest or possible money..then fine, there are plenty of other places that will get it. Same goes for stores not interested in my money beacue they don't allow OC if or when I choose to.

I remember a while back that NH was going to vote on creating signs that would be placed along the Massachusetts border reminding people they were leaving NH and that they should secure various articles, but specifically stating firearms.

It didn't happen, but that would be smart, no?

And they were doing it for boobs. A bearded, armed march of law abiding citizens across the Burnside Bridge seems in order.

Portland police shut down the Burnside Bridge on Wednesday evening and detained 13 bearded men who said they were headed to a photo shoot to raise money for breast cancer research Wednesday evening.

The problem was the men were wearing camo and witnesses said one had a rifle.

The 2 people arrested are being held pending bail, one for unlawful possession of a firearm, and tue other disorderly conduct. Still no details if the weapon was loaded, or if then person was, lol.

 

[JLDunn]

I saw this, I did an open carry rally 4 blocks away from there 6 days ago.

Just goes to show: If you're doing an Open Carry event, inform the police before hand.

Oops! I searched the Legal sub forum and didn't see it. Didn't think to search elsewhere. I'll leave it to mods to decide whether to keep this thread or not. Thanks.

 

[Drat]
