Has anyone been open carrying in New Haven? Is anyone up on ordinances and policies for New Haven? I am considering that as my next big place to open carry heavily, especially in the downtown area (Church and Chapel, etc).
I found this:

Which reads:
This is really the only major thing I am seeing in the ordinances. My question about that is whether or not the greens are considered parks. Normally I would lean towards saying they are, but then I recall the Wooster Square self defense shooting where no charges were filed, and he was sitting in a green (probably more of a park than the major green).
Does anyone have advice/experience/wisdom they want to share on this?
