ETA: I just found another thread on this law (missed it when I searched cuz it didn't have "SB 5038" in the thread title).
Can a mod (@Andy54Hawken, @Hueco, @orygun, @Kruel J, @CountryGent, @Camelfilter, @No_Regerts, etc.) please merge this thread into that one, or vice versa? Sorry I didn't find the other one before posting this one. TIA
So, SB 5038, the ludicrous law that makes it a crime to exercise the 2A in 1A spaces, was just signed into law this week... here's the law's basic pitch:
SB 5038 makes it a crime to openly carry, on the person or in a vehicle, a firearm or other "weapon" if you are at or within 250 feet of a "permitted demonstration" in a public place. Even if you leave your firearm locked in the trunk of your car, it is considered "open carry" under this bill and you will be guilty of a gross misdemeanor.
So, here's the hypothetical situation:
You're on your way home from work and you end up surrounded by a BLMtifa "protest" (let's just say that this particular riot has a permit).
Say you forgot to strap on as you left work and your firearm is still locked in your trunk.
As I read this law, I'm guilty of a gross misdemeanor if I get caught up in this "protest" and a cop decides to search my vehicle.
What kind of bullbubblegum is that???
