“Hot Springs officials have said that they will not arrest open carriers when they are walking together, but that they might do so if the individual were alone.”
For the world of me, I don’t understand how Hot Springs could possibly justify arrests on these grounds. Are there any legal eagles out there who can help me?
From the link:
“According to the Garland County prosecutor, Steve Oliver, the intent is clear when people are marching and openly carrying but the same cannot be said about an individual citizen walking “down Central Avenue.” Therefore anyone open carrying alone will have their firearm confiscated and issued a summons to appear in court.”
