If the gun was snapped in a holster, there was no violation of the open carry ban whether or not licensed, I assume it wasn't. One thing is for sure, I can sleep sounder tonight knowing he was charged with an unconstitutional "law". What a brave officer, risking his life for mine!

The funniest thing is that in most states this would have been considered concealed carry! Ah, the state. What a retarded, wicked, and completely despicable institution!
