Please dont be offended when I ask you, but who are you again?

So far you have four posts under your belt, you havent taken a moment to introduce yourself, but you have called for a boycott on California, called to support a press conference, and scheduled an open carry meetup at a locationthat has been exhaustively pointed out is not a location where we do not wish to wear out our welcome with large groups.

So, before we commit to all this action, I think the forum is entitled to a little background on where you come from, how you got involved and what your objectives are- Because right now, my 'spidey senses' are tingling.

I think iopencarry is on these forums more as a liason from the facebook page or other CAOC cites. There's much more traffic on facebook than here, I don't check it out that frequently though.

Iopencarry and the other 2 with simular names are NOT, I repeat NOT the same person.

On that note, dirtykoala is correct that I am just passing info on from facebook to those of you here that do not like facebook.

While I do believe I know who 1opencarrier is, I of corse am not 100% possitive, as of yet.I just have not had the chance to talk to him yet to be sure. IF he is who I think he is, he is a good guy and on our side.

Hey Iopencarry (Dale),

I have been confused by the 1opencarrier handle thing also. I will look at the handle carefully before I assume that I am responding toyou.

I marked the site of this starbucks it falls well short of a public Elementary School. It's only about 750 feet away.
Take a screenshot and post it please. It looks like we may have an issue with this new member.

You might want to start using anavatar as a visual aid to separate yourself from the other 2-3 similar usernames.

Hello fellow open carriers I am ONE open carrier. I am the organizer of eastbay open carry and 707open carry together with Norcal open carry. we have been doing events since January. we have open carried in Richmond, Vallejo, Martinez, Antioch, Pinole, everywhere we have gone was without incident. I was at the Capitol fighting for our rights in opposition of AB1934. Mark and Dale have met me and can vouch for my dedication. Sorry that I didn't intro myself sooner as I just joined opencarry.org.



Thanks

it seems like the starbucks is not within 1000ft of a school, but it is cutting it really close. if you parked a block or 2 away in the wrong direction you would violate 626.9





EDIT: The parking lot for Starbucks is deffinantly within 1000ft of aschool. If you are going to attend this event, unless you are very confident you havnt parked in a school zone, you can be safe by carrying your gun in a locked container until you get inside or very close to starbucks, then holster your gun.

i can see that you've got some experience with setting up meets as you have posted. but how did you make the measurements, from starbucks to the center of the school or the edge of the school zone?
