Watch out, King 5 video claims you need a license to open carry.

WATCH THE VIDEO! The printed article is unreliable at best.

Watch the second one ^^^^ first.
This is going to cause problems for all of us who Open Carry. Call in and complain demand that they tell the truth!

Hmm, you are talking about this portion of the article?

In Washington , you don't need a permit to have a loaded gun in your home. However, if you carry it outside of the home concealed, or in your car, you need a concealed pistol license.

There is nothing incorrect about this statement, it could have been better written or more supportive toward open carry.

I did note the video on King5 as you stated is incorrect in saying a CPL is need to take it outside the house.

Watch the VIDEO! The video is what people saw on the nightly news.
Most people are too lazy to read what is their site. The VIDEO clearly states that you need a license to take a pistol outside your house.

Why can't anyone read the instructions?

That part about in your car is deceptive. If it is not loaded then you don't need a CPL/CPP.

Bob it would not make a difference, it has been tried numerous times with people just being ignored, how has it worked for you?
Post a comment or two on the article and move on to the next one.

Yes why is that people do not read what was written?

You're right, Sheeple are waking up! It's never been the gun itself, it's the person Carrying/Controlling it! So far when I've been carrying, I get no comments, but a few stares(More of curiosity than anger). I think Common Sense is finally making a comeback, and PC is on the decline. My Dad remembers when He'd go shooting with a friend over in trainyards in Magnolia back in 1977 to shoot Pigeons. They would walk around town with Ruger 10/22's and no one cared! Try that now and see what happens!

So I must say this current trend is good. I have bought 4 guns in the last month just because I like collecting! It's a Hobby! And before I bought my first gun, I took a oath to protect myself and my loved ones, even if it means sacrificing myself to save them. I WILL USE FORCE, I WILL NOT SURRENDER, I WILL STAND MY GROUND.

Long Live America, and all her Law Abiding Citizens!

As a matter of fact Washington is an open carry state which means If you are LEGAL to own A weapon, you can carry it out in the open properly holstered.WITHOUT A permit at all. It is your kind of reporting that has people wasting the time of local police and sheriffs depts. making calls about A man with A gun every time they see someone carrying A properly holstered handgun. So again I ask you to GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT before you falsely report something.

Thats funny. I corrected her on the written piece a couple of weeks ago, and this was her reply;

"The article is corrected. Sometimes things get miscommunicated and I fear that's what happened with myself and the web editor. It has been corrected and I thank you for your feedback!"

For someone who is the business of communication, she seems to have a lot of "miscommunication". This time, she blamed the web editor.
