Open Carry luncheon in Livermore..

FYI MythBusters proved this analogy is a myth; the bulls ran around all the shelves with china careful not to hit anything.

Hey! I saw that episode! I don't believe that their results are supportable since there was only one 'shelf' in the 'shop' and it had plasticware on it instead of real china. It was also bolted to the wall and the floor and was electrified so that the "bull" (which really was a cow) would stay away from it.

To me it was just typical Mythbusters style. Sort of close to the 'myth' but not really with inconclusive results and suspect testing methods that leave out a lot of things.

Must have been another episode. I saw one where they had multiple shelves, outside. The bulls (plural - they loosed several at once) tried their damnedest to avoid hitting anything. They were quite nimble. Video here.

Guys make sure that your pistols are registered to you if you do this. Don't bring your grandpas pistol that your uncles cousin gave you but you never did any paperwork on it. It'll just be a hassle to get it back from the police if they did start trouble.

[colossians323]

to wear or carry concealed

This states wear concealed, or carry concealed, by the grammatical text.

to wear

Okay even assuming that it was applied as you were reading it, this ordinance would be pre-empted by California law. This would interfere with already established law.

Looking at the context of the ordinance however, there is no prohibition to carrying any of those items in an exposed fashion.

The title of the ordinance even says..."Carrying concealed
Emphasis mine.

You're right. That's the way I read it the first time. I read it again and brain farted.

I'm currently in a "11" day wait for my XD. I decided against carrying the TRP. I'm going to OC the XD a couple of times and then officially organize the OC luncheon.
