I wasn't making a factual statement. All I was saying there is some regulation in place, and one has to read the statute to figure out its reach.
RCW 9.41.050: Carrying firearms.
Here is the link to the statute. Abode and fixed place of business are exempt from concealed carry law.
============================================================
Oregon prohibits carrying concealed in public without CHL
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry, sounded like a an absolute.
Okay, the exemption seems to be this one :
166.250. (1) Except as otherwise provided in this section or ORS 166.260, 166.270, 166.274, 166.291, 166.292 or 166.410 to 166.470, a person commits the crime of unlawful possession of a firearm if the person knowingly:
(a) Carries any firearm concealed upon the person;
...
...
(2) This section does not prohibit:
(b) Any citizen of the United States over the age of 18 years who resides in or is temporarily sojourning within this state, and who is not within the excepted classes prescribed by ORS 166.270 and subsection (1) of this section, from owning, possessing or keeping within the persons place of residence or place of business any handgun, and no permit or license to purchase, own, possess or keep any such firearm at the persons place of residence or place of business is required of any such citizen. As used in this subsection, residence includes a recreational vessel or recreational vehicle while used, for whatever period of time, as residential quarters.
So the way I see it, hypothetical farmland would not be exempted. Second interesting observation, is that exemption does not apply to Permanent Residents (non-citizens) and non-immigrant aliens (those with a hunting license).
Perhaps there is more to it, but that's what my "trolling" was all about.
According to my analysis on Oregon Firearm Laws, Now that you've read my analysis on Oregon Firearm Laws, what do you think? Did I miss anything? Should Oregon residents be able to carry concealed on their property? How could an exemption be put in ORS 166.250 for carrying concealed on one's own property? What would be involved in convincing the legislature to amend ORS 166.250 to add an exception for concealed possession in the home and business?
you can carry concealed to and from and while engaging in outdoor activities fishing,hiking hunting.... so you are just hiking on your property
Couple of things. I'm not sure where you found "hiking", but to claim fishing or hunting exemption one would likely need to show fishing or hunting license, as well as show other evidence of being prepared for such activities. Also one wouldn't be able to stop at a laundromat or pickup kids for school (especially since this one would be a violation of Federal law) while "on his way to or from a hunting/fishing".
Basically, your private property and your business properties are exempt from RCW 9.41 or ORS 166. If you will look in RCW 9.41.042, this exemption even goes so far as "under age 18" goes too.
is awesome.Google, analyze, and make a point.
He verified that if my employer did not object to my carrying that I was within my rights. Of course he could have been wrong, but this is an exact example of carrying concealed on private property. My office is 2 blocks from the Willamette, right in Portland to be clear. As far as concealed carry in general is concerned, I have never understood why it is that I must ask for permission to be granted for one of my inalienable rights. I have no criminal record. I have never had so much as a parking ticket. I will carry when and where I choose(within reason). I do not carry openly to prove a point or as a statement. I carry to defend myself and my family if necessary. No law, new or old, will ever stop me from doing that. Kip.
good catch you are right
You can "interpret" things many ways. As long as officers of the law understand my right to defend myself rationally, I am more than ready to explain myself to a jury or judge in the case that I am found to be carrying or using a firearm illegally. My case will be tried just as all the others that contradict each other, on an individual basis. Laws are created by governments. Rights, such as the one to defend myself and my family, are created by my existence. I don't carry at my son's school. I don't carry at the hospital. As far as whether or not I have a CHL, it is concealed for a reason and will stay that way. I only wanted to present an exact example of an officer of the law acknowledging my right to defend my life within reason. He did not question a CHL, because it was not necessary given the circumstances.
