detained and lectured by the police for legally carrying a gun

[RetSquid]

Does the 'no guns' sign have any legal meaning?

[sabreyow]

@RetSquid ya know..i dont know..lol..ill have to look it up..probably not, because its a county building and i thought the only places i couldnt carry are private property places and courthouses..hmm

[fauxhawk70]

The officer definitely needs retraining... I wonder if she was trained by the same people training the Seattle PD? It is starting to sound like the whole police force in Washington state needs a training refresher course!

[tannerwaterbury]

Are you a member of OCDO? 

[sabreyow]

@tannerwaterbury no,never heard of it..what is it?

[tannerwaterbury]

@sabreyow opencarryorg (add the dot between the y and o) Its a site discussing open carry, and there are forums with each individual state that has fellow OCers... Washington being the most active. You should drop in sometime and say hi, I'm there with the same screenname I am here.

MOST COPS HERE IN WA STATE ARE DUMB ASSES

[Bombero43able]

you seem like a smart guy, but I believe ( in most states) you can't carry in Federal buildings including library, Malls, and Police stations.

[sabreyow]

@Bombero43able libraries are county,.cant carry only courtrooms,fed buildings and some private property places like wal-mart,safeway.ive actually been asked to leave safeway and wal-mart before by the mgr,no problem,can i purchase my fruit loops though?.lol .got home,called the 1-800 numbers for the stores,they told me,the mgrs actually shouldnt have kicked me out unless it was posted.never made a stink about it,im very polite..oh by the way,the library now has a big no guns sign out front lmao

[sabreyow]

@Bombero43able you can carry in malls

[URBANxCOMBAT]

@sabreyow No, malls are Federally owened now, didn't you here :)

[sabreyow]

@URBANxCOMBAT ive never heard of a mall thats owned by the govt..all the malls out here are owned by private companies

[fauxhawk70]

@Bombero43able -What are you talking about? Malls are privately owned here in Washington and most other places! Have you read the state law on carrying? It sounds like you know less than the uneducated officer that stopped him leaving the library! If you have a CPL you can even carry in sports stadiums and drop/pickup your kids from school as long as you do not go into the school. If I am not mistaken libraries are not federal. Do some research before you post! Thanks,

[gobbly1337]

aren't you concerned about control and retention behind the back like that? Just seems like it's too easy for someone to grab it. Even on my hip I will often rest my arm on my handle when in lines and other places that people are closer to me.

[sabreyow]

@gobbly1337 its pretty tight tucked in to my waistband like that..i can run,jump,throw the ball with the dog and it wont fall.and yes people behind me is a concern..i always angle my body so im sideways with my hand an inch or two away..i dont like hip carry because when i walk,my hand always hits it repeatedly,as well as walls,shopping carts,car doors etc..

[houstonsportscollect]

Man I like your videos, you keep it real. Definitely got my sub.

[sabreyow]

@houstonsportscollect  hey! the auto guy with the neat stuff, right? nice hearing from you..let me know if you want to do some trading..check out my baseball,basketball and football stuff

[RisingUP20]

ahah what a biAtCh

[sgmailman15]

you look like a hillbilly version of Christian Bale. no offense

[sabreyow]

@sgmailman15 ok..i guess..if hillbillys actually came from new york instead of the south or missouri..

[nadbooker]

Sue for harassment. This chic cop needs to be spoken with. Annoying.

[Ilovewinter]

Im on your side :) think some cops need education.

[Ilovewinter]

I think this officer needs some retraining!!!!!!!!

[Ilovewinter]

they can get in deep shit for the way the treated you, no cops so far have had any issue with me open carrying even in down town Tacoma no issues with the ones who could see it.

[Ilovewinter]

they can ask you for your licence not that you have to give it to them, I carry on my hip almost 7 mo. not so much as been talked to, and I carry a Raging Judge

[Ilovewinter]

found your vid :)

[GTVAlfaMan]

Now I understand, you live in California, and you have a CCW permit. You must either carry your firearm totally concealed and loaded or you may Open Carry, unloaded, in a holster on your belt. Since you stuck the gun in your waistband, the gun is considered "concealed" and you probably are breaking the Open Carry law in California (Especially if it was loaded). You may not Open Carry a loaded firearm in California as far as I know.

[sabreyow]

@GTVAlfaMan if that is directed at me,i think i said about 4 times in the video..washington

[coldshark64]

in socal they prolly would have tackeld you and crap and then ask about it haha

[GTVAlfaMan]

I have not seen anyone Open Carry inside the waistband here in California. Is this legal in Calfornia also?

[coldshark64]

@GTVAlfaMan no i dont hink it is here in cali



[GTVAlfaMan]

@coldshark64

Do you live in California? All Open Carriers here must have their firearm exposed on a belt holster, not inside the waistband.

[coldshark64]

@GTVAlfaMan yea i live in california? i think you need a liscense to carry no?

[sabreyow]

@illicitjmoskid44 the gangsters wouldve already gotten you

[illicitjmoskid44]

HAHAHAAHAHAHAH!!!! Gotta be protected from those gangsters on the street!!!!!

[GODHOOD1]

We did try to get an open carry law passed here in Florida but the politicians and law-enforcement officers were against it. I guess they didn't want the hassle of people calling the police when they see someone open carrying at a store or out in the open. There are also some police officers that just don't know the laws in their state or basically harass people who open carry. It's too bad you had to go through, but you handled the situation well.

[sabreyow]

@GODHOOD1 thanks

[sabreyow]

@55lincecumfan55 because its my legal right to do so and when seconds count,the police are only minutes away..lets just say for arguments sake,there really was a crazed madman at the library that day,i checked out dvd's and books for about 20 minutes and only when i was leaving did the police come..now,they wouldve gotten there fast if there was any shooting..BUT it only takes about one minute for a skilled shooter to waste everyone in that library. or store,school etc..dont you watch the news?

[55Lincecumfan55]

what I'm wondering is why do you have one?

[JoeKnowsBo3416]

Yea man that sux dude.. U hear about that crap happening alot with the cops using excessive force n overstepping their boundries with simple issues..

[tomorrowtodayreviews]

Yea I only seen a couple of people carry it on the east side in Issaquah
