Additionally, the "premises of another" element in -52 would presumably not apply to public streets, sidewalks, and public property open to the public, e.g., city halls.
And yes, the Alabama statutory scheme is a bit confusing, hence all the AG opinions on the matter telling us open carry is legal.

Yes, in part - that is, I think the Ala. cts have in effect said, and the AG opinions too, is that conduct which violates -52's textis unlawful only if it is also a violation of -73. Open carry on foot does not violate -73 just as concealed and car carry with permit does not violate -73 - or "same difference" as some would say.Mike, thanks for the reply.
