I thought members of Northwest Firearms would be interested in checking out the videos I recently posted on my blog:
<broken link removed>
On August 23rd I held an open carry event in Portland to raise awareness about the private security company, Portland Patrol Inc, illegally carrying firearms in the city. The recent videos show a very positive experience with the Portland Police and shows the reactions of Portlanders seeing an open carry event. I think I've presented the case on my blog of how to legally Open Carry in the city of Portland.
Anyways, check it out, let me know what you think... I'm not new to Northwest Firearms, but I'm doing this project under my real name for accountability purposes.
I'm especially interested in tapping into the vast understanding of laws that members on this forum have: Does a DPSST certification allow a person to open carry in Portland? Does Portland Patrol Inc have some special permission from the city to open carry (see any public records)? What is the name of the case law that establishes assumption of a loaded firearm? I've done my research, I'm wondering there's any other perspectives, or if theres something Im missing.
Also, as I mention on the blog, Im interested in doing another open carry event in Portland, but I think its very important to create an objectively positive message. Maybe in a separate thread, down the road, we can consider such things.
Cheers,
JL Dunn
