So I was reading WTNH's website and I saw an advertisement for the CT program for "See something Say something" SO I was curious what types of ridiculous things they are telling people to look out for and at the VERY bottom of the page I saw this
"People openly possessing a weapon or dangerous item"
I am in AWE that this perfectly legal activity per CT law has somehow made its way onto what is basically a terrorist watch list of things people should report to the police as being suspicious. They try to be careful by listing it as something the "MAY" be suspicious but it sends a VERY clear message to me... open carry and be treated like a terrorist. I tell you one thing though I'm gonna contact a friend of mine at channel 8 and find out who is in charge of keeping that ad on the website and see what I can do to get it taken down. I also am curious if someone can help me out with contacting the CT dept of transportation and the CT dept of homeland security who have their names on this website and see if I can straighten them out about open carry and explain to them the possible legal ramifications of tell people to call the police on someone who is openly carrying a firearm.... I think I have found my first big issue I'm going to jump on. This really irritated me to no end and I'm gonna do what I can to get that website changed.
below is the link to the site its at the bottom of the page.
