Open Carry Gathering in Broad Ripple - Let's Make Our Plans

[rhino]

Okay ... looks like the next open carry event will be in Broad Ripple at a coffee shop whose name and exact address have yet to be confirmed.

• I'm thinking breakfast in the 0700 or 0800 time frame.
• Wednesdays and Fridays are best for me; some Saturdays are doable.
• Open carry is encouraged, but definitely not mandatory to join us. If you want to conceal or not carry at all, that's fine; you can still join the fun!

OOhhhh if it's a fast 7:00 during the week, we might be able to make it. Weekends are almost always doable, but I know a lot of people would be grumbly about being up that early on a Saturday.

I'm in.
I'll walk my dog down as well if its the shop I think it is.
p.s. anytime is good for me taking another 2 months off for my blown bicep

well unless we stay @ my folks house over night we would be driving down from Laff.
( BTW my folks place is walking distance from that shop.. one of the reasons we would be in on this one..)
So 0700 is probably to early for us..

Hey T brought up a question.. Do you guys have a standing plan on what will happen if you do get detained by police ?
I know we have lawyers on call & possibly on site..

I'd like to come, but this Saturday is not doable for me. Maybe next time, though.

I think they are going to have an intervention and make him clean his weapons.

Re: having a plan

Same plan as if I get pulled over for a traffic stop. Do what you're told. Answer questions succinctly. Offer no extra information. Do not engage in banter of any kind. Ask if I'm free to go. Worry about violations of civil rights and outright insults afterward.

Isn't the issue with IMPD and not Broad Ripple?

If you want to attempt to have an Open Carry meet at the Police Station near Broad Ripple, be my guest. However, I think the coffee shop idea might be a better one.

If the law doesn't prohibit it (and I am ignorant on this issue), why not do one there? The issue is with this officer, others who may be like him and the department. Address the issue head-on, that's all I'm saying.

What if there is another incident? The shop owner could very well hang a shingle on the door "no weapons". Certainly his right as a private property owner. If that does happen (here or anywhere else), then we could all loose a little more freedom.

It is a worthy fight, but I'm saying we should be cautious in selecting our battleground.
