I am a new member, but I have been following open carry for some time now. I open carry (while fishing) three to four times a week and have had my fair share of experiences with law enforcement. At times the four to six officers tried bullying or just out right had no idea of the 790.25 (3)(h) statute. To give people new to open carry a step by step overview of what to expect when approached by an officer, it would go a little something like this. It immediate starts with them flexing their lack of knowledge of the law and Iding you, followed by illegal detainment, and finally ending with them seizing your firearm. A lengthy argument of statutes ensues, followed by a request to have the officer's supervisor called. Supervisor comes, has a discussion with the officer and he/she returns your property with no recourse to the officer for violating your rights. With that said, it is imperative that you know the law before embarking on your fishing trip. You must also be aware of your surroundings. If there is a "no trespassing sign" anywhere near you (under a bridge,ect.) get away from that area or the officer will cite you. Keep in mind you just made them look like idiots and if they can get you on something they will. Not all of my experiences have been bad. The only ones I do count as good, were when a squad car pulls up and views me fishing for a minute or two and then leaves. Remember, a right not exercised is a right lost!!
