This thread has been enlightening (re: personalities and posting styles)....a bit scary when you think about reality (regarding the actual issue at hand).

Personally my first thought was summed up right here

Quote:
Makes me want to drive up to WB and stand on the corner E. Northampton and Sherman streets with my sig strapped to my side.
(except mine would be a Taurus)

There have been many good points made. I really enjoyed reading all of this...despite how sad the entire matter is.

I'm sorry for the guy who is going through all of this but thank you for contacting a lawyer and standing up for your rights. There will be many people to benefit from that long after. All too often people just go away quietly....

This reminds me of laying in bed, waiting for Santa to show up. Well, that is what it feels like anyway. But we are waiting on PAPatriot.

UPDATE:

PART I

Yes, MM has his firearm back.

I accompanied Mystery_Man to the WBPD and he successfully retrieved his firearm. Not much to say about the specifics except that he did not prove ownership.

WBPD did not seem happy to see me (or maybe it was my sidearm?), if looks could kill I would not be posting right now.

MM is a real class act, upon completion of the formalities and ultimate return of his firearm, he preceded to holster it up right there (he wore his empty holster) and tucked his shirt in behind it

We then walked up to the town square to get some pizza and then stood on the sidewalk talking by our parked cars (across from the PD) for about 45 minutes or so.

Other than some dirty looks and even a couple approving looks, WBPD didn't seem to have an issue with our OC today like they did on 6/7


PART II
...tomorrow

Just wanted to publicly thank you for all that you give of yourself, especially to this cause. Taking time out of your life, to help people, while potentially putting yourself at risk with police, is just ridiculously selfless. Thank you.

In all seriousness though, good! I'm glad they wised up and returned MM's firearm. Now let's see if they learned their lesson. But that's just gonna take more people OCing in W-B.

If PaPatriot keeps going all these places to support us gun owners. We may have to start a "GAS DONATION FUND" to help pay for his gas during his travels.
