I didn't think he was trying to be deceptive, I just figured he didn't know how to quote.

Your previous post informs nobody about anything on another forum. You response is as clear as day. You have no reference to this other forum and if you are being sarcastic, you did not indicate it. From what you wrote it appears you are a troll and nothing indicated you were pro open carry. You wrote " CONCEALED MEANS CONCEALED".
You'll get no apology from me.
He did say it was posted on 'Glock Talk' in his post, although at the bottom...just to be fair.
That's the equivalent of telling an elaborate story and ending it with "and then I woke up from the dream!"
It's deceptive, and pisses people off without a good reason.
Sorry I hadn't figured out the fancy "qoute" button yet, so to any of those who I pissed off, thats what happens when just glance at a post and don't read all the way through it, I'll be sure to add a disclaimer at then end of all my post from here on out

No, not really. That's what happens when people get tired of reading anti open carry venom spewed out by some guy they've never heard of and stop reading about half way through. If you mean to apologize actually do it.
And BTW, your disclaimer is meaningless. There isn't any white box in your original post.

| why would I apologize????? Because he stopped reading the post halfway through and made a bad assumption?

Has there been a resolution to this situation yet?
I'm not particularly interested in joining Glocktalk in order to search for another thread.

I know this is a relatively old post... I actually still lived in Portland when this happened, and I wasn't really aware of the OC movement then. Now living in VA, I OC daily. I will be back home in 3 weeks to central Maine, and will be spending some time with friends in Portland, and will be OC'ing my Glock. Hopefully I won't get arrested at gunpoint, but we shall see...

Interesting case, to say the least.
Good to see the charges dropped.

Just make sure you are fully legal. Don't have a knife in your pocket or anything silly that they may use as an excuse to make an arrest on you.

Last time I checked, a regular folding knife is legal to carry... Has something changed, and/or is there a cite for this?
I've carried a knife in Maine for my entire life. Usually it's clipped to my pocket, and I have talked to dozens of police officers over the years (including some of Portland's "finest"), and no one has ever said a thing.

If you're open carrying a gun. They will stop you. They will frisk you, and they will call a pocket knife in your pocket a "concealed weapon" that's what they did to me. The charges will get dropped by the DA, but it cost me $1500 in lawyer fees to get it dropped.

Thanks for the insight. My next question is... do you still open carry?

I open carried in the Sanford Walmart today looking for ammo. It was too hot to have my cover shirt, so I took it off. No screams of protest... no police involvement.
I've open carried twice in Portland since my arrest and was stopped and detained both times by a multicop force. They usually send about 4 cars after me. The last time they stopped me they reported me to the State Police and threatened to have my concealed permit revoked. So I don't OC in Portland anymore...

Wow. I knew Portland cops were @$$ holes but that is ridiculous. Maybe we can meet up for an OC lunch or something while I'm home... If you don't want to deal with it at all, I completely understand.

I'll be in Portland on Friday, the 17th of this month. Lunch somewhere? If you want to meet up, pick the place. There are so many restaurants in Portland that I have been deprived of, I am game to go anywhere.

Have at least two good digital recorders in the group.
Boyscout - have you filed any freedom of information requests yet. Sounds to me that you might have valid basis for suit.

Good idea. I don't have a voice recorder, I'll try to find one this week. I'm not sure what Maine's recording laws are, I will try to look them up.

You've got a great basis for a 42 USC 1983 lawsuit. Keep names and badge numbers and all that good stuff. Retain a lawyer.

Yep, I said the same thing in the thread over at GT. There were people over there poo poo'ing the idea of a civil suite, and saying that he didn't have enough of a case to make it worthwhile. They don't know what they are talking about. This is not only a violation of 4th Amendment, but outright harassment. This is starting to happen here as well. This OC movement is starting to look more and more like the civil rights movement of the 60's.
