Heard the same thing in VA 10-15 years ago. I started open carrying. It hasn’t been a problem.
Either it’s legal or it isn’t.
>Either its legal or it isnt.
The 2nd A?
It can be legal but be offensive and invite harassment by the police if that’s the way they’ve been trained. Were you aware that DE is solidly blue? Even the Republicans are more purple than red. My dear state representative just got a bill passed into law that allows the villages and towns to forbid carry open or concealed in certain buildings or at town meetings that were previously matters of state preemption. Not that I agree at all, and am rather put out about the situation of letting localities begin to infringe, but I doubt that chasing and stopping a non-fatal violator might get one into serious trouble. The Far West has a different heritage and culture. Just sayin’.
