Open carry in York issue.
Right on the instruction form it says the following:
"Overt and unnecessary display of your firearm in public places can cause alarm to the public and may result in revocation of your permit." Should I be concerned? Should we try to get this changed?

Re: Open carry in York issue.
I don't think I'd say you should be 'concerned', but you should educate yourself on the issue in case you would run into a LEO who has an objection. Now the good news: You came to the right place!
There are two cases from the PA Supreme Court that clearly establish that OC is legal (Commonwealth v. Hawkins & Commonwealth v. Ortiz). Further, there is no statute that prohibits it. If you get revoked for the mere act of OC without any other criminal actions, I believe you have a very strong case to overturn the revocation on appeal. Whether or not you are willing to accept the 'risk' and oppose an improper revocation if it would occur is a personal decision that you will need to make. There is an OC lunch in Gettysburg on May 25. If you'd like to try out OC with a group of others who already OC frequently, this would be a great opportunity to come out and see for yourself how much of a 'non-event' OC really is.
