I've missed something... how would them banning OC cause more of it?

It does. Thanks.
I suddenly was reminded today that this was supposedly being voted on May 6. Did anything happen? I cant find any mention of it on Ashland city council minutes.
§ 166.170 State preemption
(1) Except as expressly authorized by state statute, the authority to regulate in any matter whatsoever the sale, acquisition, transfer, ownership, possession, storage, transportation or use of firearms or any element relating to firearms and components thereof, including ammunition, is vested solely in the Legislative Assembly.
(2) Except as expressly authorized by state statute, no county, city or other municipal corporation or district may enact civil or criminal ordinances, including but not limited to zoning ordinances, to regulate, restrict or prohibit the sale, acquisition, transfer, ownership, possession, storage, transportation or use of firearms or any element relating to firearms and components thereof, including ammunition. Ordinances that are contrary to this subsection are void
So that means we can ignore Portland's loaded OC ban, right?
As far as I know, there is no express authorization for it. So how do we get it invalidated?
ORS 166.173 gives cities and counties the express authority to enact bans for LOADED carry. Such ordinances do not affect or apply to those with CHLS according to the ORS. Kinda funny how they say that and yet if you have a CHL you WILL get hassled in Portland...that's affected in my book!
Well..... while a violation of the Second Amendment it could be worse. LEOs are not allowed to stop a citizen solely because they are bearing arms.

As such an LEO cannot and will not know whether the weapon is loaded or not unless he robs you of your firearm and then the illegal seizure will mean there is no case.
Lol... or he could just stand behind you and see the magazine in the firearm.... and depending on the wording of the statute just having the magazine in might be loaded. Also, since its not common practice to carry with empty magazines in the gun I'd say enough RS to stop and inquire.
Might as well not even carry at that point...

Also, some firearms have a loaded chamber indicator on them, which depending on the holster may he visible from just standing near you. Plain view....
