re: Those of u who carry: Good info I received from my 2A attorney, approaching the election

I have in the past, but have gotten out of the habit. But you are absolutely correct.


Here is an issue - what to do with the firearm after. Obviously situation dependent. If you are in your home you may be able to leave it on the table.

But, if you are in downtown Portland you certainly are not going to be setting it on the ground waiting for the LEOs.

Do you tell dispatch, "please tell officers that my firearm is secured in my holster and I will turn it over when they arrive?"

Or, just be prepared to raise your arms and tell the first officer on the scene?

Kinda worrisome because who knows how dispatch is going to translate the message.
