Re: Open carry to the polls
I get all the discussion about legally open carrying on school grounds. For the sake of argument, let's say it's OK. But who wants to be demonized by the media and all over the Interwebs to fight that battle? Maybe I'm a wuss, but not me.

Re: Open carry to the polls
I open carry to the polls. And as long as I've got the job, as long as they aren't acting inappropriately, everybody else can as well.
Last time around, my poll was in a school.

Re: Open carry to the polls
I'm a constable. I'm required by law to be at the polls, and I show up in my duty uniform, which includes my carry pistol in a retention holster. My job that day is to keep the peace and make sure that no qualified voter is denied access to the polls.

We're elected for 6 year terms. I've got just about 1 more year until I'm up for re-election.

Carrying while in LEO uniform is a totally different thing than for someone in regular clothes. Not legally, perceptually.
