Carrying at Norman Music Festival

So I guess OS2A is filing a lawsuit on this deal. I'm all for carrying (which I do everyday) but 2nd amendment guy doesn't look very reasonable saying he won't leave if asked to by organizers.

They drew Balkman, new judge been on the bench a very short time. I think he will be a good judge but unlikely he will go against the City at this point in his career (See Joe Mixon open records suit).

This suit seems rushed and thrown together and potentially there would be a better one to interpret the statute, my concern would be it sets a precedent against 2nd amendment rights if it goes the wrong way. Anyone have any info on why OK2A chose this festival to file a suit?

Unreasonable for him to say he won't leave a public area where he has a right to be and is not breaking the law? My understanding is that there were attempts to work this out with the city of Norman and the organizers but they refused to budge. We should be grateful that OK2A is out there taking a stand.

That's exactly what I'm worried about....having "ambassadors" like these show up to the Norman Music Fest

We'll be on national news yet again...

Only good thing is I've meet a few OK2A guys and I'm pretty sure they won't be showing up looking like those goobers in TX.

No they won't stand for that shat

I wasn't aware that we could legally open carry a rifle.

It's a Texas thing, you wouldn't understand...

Neither the organizers or the city have the right to ask him to leave a PUBLIC sidewalk. This lawsuit was not about private property rights, which OK2A strongly supports. This lawsuit was about the City of Norman attempting to illegally ban guns on public streets, in direct violation of Oklahoma law. The judge agreed with OK2A and ruled in their favor. In this case, the gun ban would have covered several city blocks. If the ban were allowed to stand, next year it could have covered several more blocks, or even the entire city. If the Norman Music Festival wants to ban guns, they can hold their event on private property, not on public streets, using public money, paid for with your tax dollars.
