You shouldn't have any problems with that area. I been all over South Blvd. and the Tyvola Rd. area. You have to expect a hassle if you go Uptown (i.e. anything inside the John Belk I277). You may get hassled in Pineville if you make it that far south. I used to work over on Independence and had plenty of LEO encounters with no problems.

Thanks. Will keep that in mind.

well , not saying LEOs lie, but they might not tell you the truth. there is a thing i like to call "functional intelligence", it is just enough intellegence to funtion. they will not go beyond their training.

i have often notice the government to be full of these types

Plus, never discount personal bias...they know they are under no obligation to tell the truth and hold no liability for bad information. So they spout what they feel will enhance "officer safety" regardless of other consequences.

Interesting. Do you know of a precedent where this was established?

Well, since you have a NC and US Constitutional RIGHT to carry ARMS, I think that section D pretty much covers it...militia or not.

BTW: Here is a url for the Charlotte code.
