Sues the pants off them for what? Slowing the lawyer down and telling him he is breaking a non-existent law? I agree the department should understand the law regarding LTCH, but this business about suing people left and right is rubbish. Our entire world is too lawsuit happy. A LEO telling you that OC is illegal is not a criminal offense, nor is it lawsuit worthy.

yes but this is Amerika and the law does what the law wants and the peopl bvetter at least pretent to be happy about it or you are a person of intrest at least in the eyes of those officers wh o work where you live every day. And Right is right and a beating is a beating and I also have to think about my family. Also once arrested it is nearly impossible to get your permit back. Even the commissoners have trouble getting thier permits reinstated in Indiana.
More misconception with zero facts behind such a statement. If anything OC is a deterrent. Read up, samaritan.While it is ones right to carry openly (once the state tax is paid for the LTC), I am more than willing to take out the bad guy when they shoot the open carrier to take his gun. At least his attn. will be off of me while I draw & shoot Mr. Armed Robber, and I won't be the 1st one shot.

But see my point. This is the attitude from a LEO.( If he really is what he claims to be) If He'll say that much on a message board think what he'll do in person.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
With all due respect sir, please don't be jumping to conclusions and, or piling on. I (and many others) can and will attest to this man's profession and knowledge of the subject.
You can carry any handgun you legally possess, any way you choose in IN. Open, concealed, whatever. As long as you have an LTC, you're legal.
That said, I tend to conceal 99.9% of the time (when not in uniform). While it is ones right to carry openly (once the state tax is paid for the LTC), I am more than willing to take out the bad guy when they shoot the open carrier to take his gun. At least his attn. will be off of me while I draw & shoot Mr. Armed Robber, and I won't be the 1st one shot.
