York Sheriff's "Reminders"

[TwistedCopper]

The York Co. Sheriff's instructions for a concealed weapons permit is followed by a page entitled "A Reminder on Firearms Responsibility From Sheriff Rich Keuerleber".

In this letter applicants are asked to please consider the following as it relates to your firearms license:

2. Overt and unnecessary display of your firearm in public places can cause alarm to the public and may result in revocation of your permit.

9. If you are carrying a firearm and come into contact with a Law Enforcement Officer, follow all instructions you are given. Do not make any sudden moves, keep your hands visible, and notify the officer immediately that you have a firearms license and a firearm on your person.

Then it closes by calling these "considerations".

I thought there was no law making open carry illegal and also that there was precident set to support that.

I also thought that we did not have to notify an officer, but if asked obviously we must be truthful.

Seems like this friendly reminder is full of false information.

For the record, "Overt" means "open to view" based on Merriam-Webster's definition. Basically this says open carry will jeopardize your LTCF.

" I have nothing illegal in my possession " is about as truthful as I care to be.

Sorry guys, I haven't been on here much lately and missed that incident. Good to see it's already out in the open. I'm reading that thread to catch up...

The thing is, it states "Overt AND unneccessary display"...

This suggests that both conditions must apply. Apparently overt display in and of itself is not grounds per the sentence.

Just thought that interesting.

I didn't know you can get your Ltcf revoked for printing .i print often ,not every single time but often enough depending on if my shirt is baggy that day or not..no one seems to even notice when I'm printing though..but is that true you can get your ltcf revoked for printing??
