Looks like the people of Birmingham need to pressure their elected representatives to change the codified law. The kid was clearly trying to be a nuisance, was creating a disturbance, and should have been charged with brandishing. It's childish conduct like this that will eventually cost all of us our gun rights.

The jury may have arrived at the correct verdict per Birmingham's codified law. If so, it is the law that is incorrect and it should be changed. Open carry of a handgun is bad enough. Open carry of a rifle, "strapped to his back", is not what any of us want.

He said^^^^^

All I heard was blah blah blah blah

Whoa... Wait a minute. I think Indiana's laws on carrying long guns (or the absence of such laws) are just fine, thank you very much. And our laws on carrying handguns are ALREADY to strict. Absolutely no way would I advocate for stripping more rights away.

Good for Sean! Nice to see justice prevail for once.

I think you forgot your purple. And if not, you forgot to take your geritol.

The case was about Michigan, not Indiana. Not that I disagree with you.

^^^ supposed to be purple right? Open carry of a handgun is bad enough? Is this a joke? I think you're in the wrong forum...

Not saying which one but I get the distinct feeling that one of the posts made here so far was done with a mixing utensil.

HOW IS THIS ACTIVITY to be construed as "Brandishing" a firearm? It was on his back, held there by a sling. He was not holding it in his hands in any threatening way, he was not pointing it in any threatening way. Does Michigan even have a "Brandishing" law because many states do not?

It does get tiresome. He's either posting things like this to try and cause a ruckus or in the break room posting about drinking. I dunno what to make of all that.
