Northport (AL) won't allow 'openly carried' guns on city property

problem is, state law doesn't allow cities to regulate the carry or possession of handguns. But all is well, stupid people. City Council passed an ordnance stating that people openly carrying handguns will simply be asked to leave city property. Then if they refuse, they'll be arrested for trespassing.

a couple of problems with this 'ordnance'.

it still allows for concealed weapons, which really means that we just don't want people being all scared at the sight of guns, and

there can be no legal justification for asking anyone to exit public property if they are NOT breaking a law.

guess the city of northport has settlement money to spare.

Awwwww...what's wrong?

Sad because you couldn't bait anyone to come post in your sad little name-calling thread?

I do have to admit it's nice to see a city side with us normal folks who call the 21st century our home.

Nutbars stuck in the 19th century and needing to hang their "manhood" on their hip for everyone to see should just go live alone in the wilderness and stay away from populated areas where the civilized have moved past the need to gun down another because they feared for their life.

For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822)
