Anybody on here go to the Orion Oaks dog park? If anybody want to meet up there to OCfor an hour or so with the dogs let me know.

I just found this in the rules:

[align=left]Section 23. FIREARMS[/align]
[align=left]No person shall, at any time, bring into or upon the properties[/align]
[align=left]of the Commission, nor have in their possession, nor discharge[/align]
[align=left]or set off anywhere upon said properties, a revolver, pistol, shotgun,[/align]
rifle, air rifle, air gun, water gun or any gun, rifle, firearm or

[align=left]other weapon that discharges projectiles either by air, explosive[/align]
[align=left]substance or any other force. Use of these items is prohibited by[/align]
[align=left]the Commission unless authorized. Provided, however, this section[/align]
[align=left]shall not apply to any deputy sheriff, police officer, peace officer,[/align]
[align=left]park officer, park ranger or other duly-appointed law enforcement[/align]
[align=left]officer while carrying out the duties and responsibilities of their[/align]
[align=left]position nor to any person while upon designated target ranges or[/align]
[align=left]areas. Provided further, that this section shall not affect the rights[/align]
[align=left]of individuals who possess a valid Concealed Pistol License issued[/align]

Funny that you post this thread right now... I just had a dream that I got a dog, and that's not a common dream for me. Hope you can find someone to go with!

Another example of illegal ordinance. Open carry is legal in a park, not just concealed carry. Just presense of this ordinance on the books is unlawful due to state firearms preemption laws

You re correct and I found this as well, I have to give them credit when I pointed it out to them, they had heard of groups like us and were already in process of making the rules change. I just heard from OCP this week and they are in the final stages of approval to officially change this to the way it should be. I am told by the end of April it should be set.
