KTVU sat down and did an interview with me for about an hour and then followed me to a meet-up of other Bay Area open carriers. Much was left out of the final piece and one part taken a bit out of context, but on the whole it was neutral. I'm surprised that they did as much research on the topic. They explained about %80 of the "gotchas" we have in California. I made references to case laws and mentioned that most of us would prefer Concealed Carry but I guess that was taken out in the interest of time.
Checkout http://www.opencarryradio.com/ for more information on open carrying in California.
just a clarification, the "automatic weapon" they are talking about at the obama rally was a semi automatic rifle and not fully automatic as the piece suggests, its basically nationally illegal to own automatic weapons, except in Kentucky and one other state i think...

i like how the news broadcast said they showed up "with automatic" guns. it is statements like that, which are fact less as the rifle shown was clearly a semi-auto rifle, that create the image of criminals in movies mowing down their victims to the uneducated. I blame the media for painting a bad picture of lawful gun owners exercising their feedoms.

@BullyChicken that guy who you're talking about is a fucking moron and is a "cowboy gun slinging" Retard. Thats not what guns are for. We're not here to fight other people with guns, he's a bitch and is a prime example of why people Hate gun rights and hate guns... its because people like that (and the media brainwashing you) make gun rights activists look bad. It fucks up freedom for the rest of us. Screw him, he's one of the few assholes who ruin for the rest of us.
