I only wish I could have done more in that situation brother.

Just being in Pineville is trashy. Inserting yourself into an open carry nutjob incident at a splash park is taking it to the next level. Gross.

Yeah it's probably best that I not help someone excercise their rights against those ignorant of them. You seem pretty trashy.

Eta if I'm at a spray park with my kids and someone is open carrying I'm going to be wary. I'm fine with it but it's going to keep me on my toes.
If you are with your kids in public, you need to be on your toes anyway.

Let's set some things straight to the those who believe I'm a paranoid nutjob. I am not paranoid, I have simply been trained to function at this level as a means to protect myself and my brothers. I've been a light infantryman in the United States Army for 6 years. I've been contracted to provide armed security at a federal level. As a matter of opsec that's all that I will say
I am awaiting my CC as I've taken the class and applied but state takes forever. Before this it seemed open carry was not a problem, and didn't attract nearly the attention it does at present. While open carrying I've always used knowledge of law and common sense not to carry into a prohibited area...
On the day in question, I had no intention of going to the park but went at the request of my family.
I was illegally detained but complied as I knew the woman the OP mentioned had most likely exaggerated when making her 911 call. Also as I had complied and removed my offensive weapon I was shocked when my wife had left with our niece to the bathroom leaving me with my son as we were about to depart anyway... When I was approached by officers one with an M4 at the low ready the other hand on sidearm. I'm unarmed, hoping I don't catch a bullet with my son an arm's length away from me or worse he become collateral damage due to those uninformed employees who bullied that situation from the start. I stated loud and clear that I had stowed my weapon I am unarmed and this is my son. I've broken no laws and complied with park personnel...
Another poster mentioned 90% sure there is a sign. My wife thought so too so I'd originally entered unarmed. After checking all entrances and signs to both park and splash pad. I'd decided to retrieve my weapon in the unlikely event of theft... Again no signs to advise it was a gun free zone as they had said- later denied by dispatch it was while I listened...
I was cuffed, my son picked up by the same officer with the M4, how is this safer for the park or my son I ask you classless bunch who wondered "why, oh why carry a gun?! And at the park?!...
BECAUSE I HAVE TAKEN FIRE HERE AT HOME is my response to you...Not because I'm some attention whore, saying frick you I do what I want.considering response time I dont trust PPD is going to respond to that "Airplane falling from the sky, so do I need to pack a parachute?" Chance of a active shooter at the park before the damage is done...You can only imagine how many units jumped on this call... Where's the justice? Because I offended someone's delicate sensibilities while exercising my right to carry and protect mine and yours should something occur.
What do I tell my son when these donkeys win and I can no longer carry anywhere? I found this out of happenstance, looking up the story of a pervert arrested DAYS after. The officers on site assured me at the time I was talking to them "they got the park, there's no need for you to carry here"... Leaving a unit behind that day but not on the following...
It's all very disgusting, humiliating, and generally... F%$ked up people... Sue?
No those same officers served with my wife and they apologized after the fact. Sadly and embarrassingly for the department in a call hours later asking what kind of weapon I was carrying... Seriously?
Sue the city!
No, I will not punish the city for the actions of TWO jackaloons. While my attention was on my family, out of habit I scanned that area and the people around me for threats to include you sir. I see my intuition was correct for I perceived you not as a threat for sitting next to me but simply a fellow citizen, patriot, and decent human being. I was correct as you posted the wrongful actions of those that day here.
I settled for reprimand, and removal of those employee's and a thorough apology to my son and the rest of my family for what happened that day.
Such treatment I thought impossible by my community and fellow countrymen. It's a shame that my trust and faith in the city, the department and the people of Pineville has been forever tarnished...
When that CC comes in, concealed always. Not because I care it offends anyone. Just tired of the bs stigma put on it now that leads to this ridiculousness.
I will never surrender my rights, I will continue to protect yours. Read the creed of my kind and ask yourself in that hour of need when the wolf comes knocking at your door do you want us the sheepdogs of this world standing between you and him in your house of straw with a brick in hand. Telling you to run cause we will not... Because we can not... Think I'm crazy, fine. I offend you, fine. I assure you I can live with that...
Thank you sir for your post and allowing me a forum in which to vent about this ridiculous event... Now sleep. So I may lace my boots, strap my vest, carry that weapon... And protect those who appreciate what I am and what I do. God bless you all, no matter your opinions

All because some joker from pineville believed it to be necessary to pack heat at the kiddy splash pad
Actually, it was the ignorant bitch that wasn't aware of the laws that created the incident. If she wasn't there, then their would be no issue.

That's what I saw. What the frick??? This man is in full control his situation and deserves every right (as all of us) to OC and CC with a permit. He is abiding by the law, yet he gets punished for his actions. Unfortunately we live in a society where there are very weak-willed people who will be 'leading' us into the next generation. Think about that. Our right have been eroding since 9/11, and it hasn't stopped.
