Do me a favor and tell your classmate that if he insists on accusing me of intentionally trying to get people in trouble, and that I am incorrect on the paopencarry.org website, that he have the decency to email or call me to cite the law and other pertinent info to set me straight.

yeah, let's see this guy put his money where his mouth is...

He then relates a story about how he once showed his 9mm to a group of five guys that were following him and his girlfriend, by lifting up his shirt and saying,"Can I help you?".

"If that was in Pa. you are lucky they didn't file a complaint and have you arrested for terroristic threatening."

Hmmm.... depends on the circumstances, I would think.

i wouldnt be OC or CC then. lack of sleep doesnt mix well with a LOT of things... its WORSE than drinking in some cases...

I have to against most of the people who replied so far. I think it's a positive experience. Having carried a gun or OC for so long, people forget that NOT everyone is knowledgeable or informed about laws, especially those regarding guns. The guy was just uninformed, granted that he pulled a lot of 'facts' out of his perceptions of the laws rather than from the correct source. Many owners and carriers don't know their rights or laws. Don't assume that everyone with a permit goes on to this board and attempt to learn.

Patience and politeness are the only ways to educate people effectively. Be glad you know what you know and spread the knowledge rather than get pissed off and laugh at people.

Nah, I am used to it, got a decent amount in today I need to do work at night sometimes, and mixing two nights and one day and two nights, can make ya a bit cranky, lol.

Quick question... If you snap someone's neck and eat their brain how do you prepare it?

Baked, broiled or fried? Does it go well with fries & a beer? Is anyone going to notice?

All kidding aside I have learned SO much from this website about the laws in PA. I grew up with a lot of what I "thought" was the law. You folks have really opened my eyes & I appreciate this website!

Spent an hour today talking to a friend who CC's and he had the same thoughts I used to... No open carry, no carrying in a bar... and on and on...

I do have to say, the entire time I read your post, I was imagining you with a very Igor/Quasimodo-esque appearance; shoulders hunched over, disheveled hair, one eye open and the other one crusted shut, untucked shirt with the buttons buttoned in the wrong holes, initially communicating with a series of grunts and moans....then discussing the legality of OC. AHAHAA!!

Well done on you for teaching, given your zombie like state of mind!
