>>The “nonsense” is the fact this is even in the news.

You could have said the same thing about Rosa Parks riding in the front of the bus. I don’t let hand-wringing journalists dictate my principles.

>>I am a proponent of open carry, but the local sheriff does not agree with me. Until I can elect a sheriff that does agree with me, I am bound by my CCW permit issue by him, which states I can only carry a pistol concealed, better?

Huh? Your Sheriff writes the laws where you live?

>>Since her sheriff revoked her permit, which mine can too if he wants, I assume she was also supposed to be carrying concealed.

Her (illegally revoked) permit would apply only to the ability to carry concealed. there is no open carry permit in any state in the union that I’m aware of.

No open carry permits as such, perhaps. But there are a number of states where carrying openly is severely limited unless one has a permit. Minnesota is one. There permit is a permit to carry a handgun, and covers both open and concealed carry.

This site has a wealth of information about open carry. Enjoy:
