So a little back story first, I have been a member of this site for over two years now even though I don't post much and haven't posted in quite some time since open carry is nothng new to me.
I am a 23 year old transgender woman and being in a high risk catagory for violence I carry a gun most of the time. I carry concealed in my purse or in my waistband depending on my outfit. Some times at night though when I walk my dog I open carry.
On April 22nd at around 9:00 pm just before it got dark I was walking my dog at semiahmoo park when I noticed what looked like two parents exchanging custody of a young child. The guy who picked up the little boy pulled off to the side of the road and was looking at me I automatically assumed it was because of my full size two tone Taurus 24/7. So I keep walking thinking nothing of it, an hour later as I'm heading back to my car I see two Blaine PD cars parked in the same parking lot as me I get my dog in her crate and two officers approach from the other side of the beach. They greet me and say they got a call from someone saying they got a report of someone carrying a gun while walking a dog. Long story short they basically chatted with me about my dog and how sweet she was and told me to have a nice walk.
There was a report about me in the police reports section of the news paper http://www.thenorthernlight.com/pol...-25_police_reports__april_19___april_25__2012 and then today some crazy liberal woman wrote a letter to the editor about it http://www.thenorthernlight.com/let...02_letters_to_the_editor__may_3___may_9__2012
I'm not exactly sure what to do or how to react to this, what do y'all think?
