Re: Open carry question
Sounds like that's just the manner he enjoys carrying in. Would you be equally pissed if someone was carrying a single action revolver with a cowboy hat? If someone was decked out in 5.11 Tactical clothes and a drop leg holster?

Re: Open carry question
Props to live and let live. You are correct.
I'm not real sure why the whole episode irritated me so much - I think in my head I was flashing forward to him being cited for not knowing the rules and making those of us that are responsible look bad.
At any rate I'll continue to leave mine at home when attending the carnival since it seems like it is most likely considered to be on school grounds.
Thanks for the input.

Re: Open carry question
Well I called my friend and it was not him. I am glad it wasn't because IMO he would know better.

Re: Open carry question
I would think that the right thing to do if one were actually concerned would be to quietly ask him if he knew he was doing something wrong by being on school grounds. Not everyone is aware of that, especially when it comes to parochial schools. He may have thought he was just on church grounds.
If he gives you a "constitution motherfucker" answer then just smile and walk away.Rules are written in the stone,

Re: Open carry question
§ 912. Possession of weapon on school property.
(a) Definition.--Notwithstanding the definition of "weapon"
in section 907 (relating to possessing instruments of crime),
"weapon" for purposes of this section shall include but not be
limited to any knife, cutting instrument, cutting tool, nun-
chuck stick, firearm, shotgun, rifle and any other tool,
instrument or implement capable of inflicting serious bodily
injury.
(b) Offense defined.--A person commits a misdemeanor of the
first degree if he possesses a weapon in the buildings of, on
the grounds of, or in any conveyance providing transportation to
or from any elementary or secondary publicly-funded educational
institution, any elementary or secondary private school licensed
by the Department of Education or any elementary or secondary
parochial school.
(c) Defense.--It shall be a defense that the weapon is
possessed and used in conjunction with a lawful supervised
school activity or course or is possessed for other lawful
purpose.
(Oct. 16, 1980, P.L.978, No.167, eff. 60 days)
1980 Amendment. Act 167 added section 912.
Cross References. Section 912 is referred to in section 6105
of this title.
You folks forgot this part. Maybe he had a lawful purpose, like self defense. ?!
or is possessed for other lawful
purpose.

Re: Open carry question
Yup, pretty much as far as possession without a direct nexus to a school activity/task:
