So I'm pretty new here, so I'm not sure how much this has been discussed. The papers were very unclear what happened to start the conflict, but it sounded like the guy had a concealed permit, but somebody saw the gun. There was some sort of argument and the other guy went for the gun, there was a struggle and the gun went off.
If this is the case, the gun owner should not have been arrested, but rather the criminal trying to take away his gun. If he had a permit, and it is also legal to open carry, what law did he break? Maybe the gun owner was an ass, and it was all his fault, but the papers were not clear at all.
If our Mayor is trying to use this as a way to override our state gun laws, perhaps that would be a great place for 100 law abiding citizens to open carry next year?
Feel free to educate me if I am misinformed here, but that's how I read things.
