Ouroboros has not posted here for over a year, strange to see that name again.

Nobody really wants to be the test case, it might be prudent to keep your concealed firearm concealed at all times--we can learn from the cases cited that even nosy neighbors can get people in trouble, if they are inclined to press charges.

If you as a member of the legal profession wants to press the issue, please keep us posted as to your success.

Sad to say, it is far too easy to get people embroiled in trouble with the court system - as I suppose yesterday's "battery on an officer" farting case out of W.Va proves. [Though I note the the assistant prosecutor wisely informed the magistrate that he wished to drop the "battery" charge today.]
