One does not need ANY permit to openly carry a handgun. Oddly, one does need a permit to carry a concealed weapon

If you have the $$$ to fight city hall, go ahead, I don't. So far, everyone in my supposed "open carry" state who does try it, goes to jail and has to hire a lawyer. Please go to your local mall wearing your shoot'en iron exposed and see what happens. If you have the right, go for it.

I'm betting her lawsuit goes nowhere. I wish it would, but I doubt it.

We live in a paranoid world. I'll keep mine concealed. Once again, I'll keep my fight in the voting booth.

Too bad that local officials act that way. A similar problem exists in many states. I suspect some like minded people will organize and create a test case that forces local officials to follow the law. It has happened in a number of states already.

Eventually it will happen in Alabama.

Local malls are private property, and the owners of that property have every right to prohibit any of their guests from behavior with which they disapprove.

I'll take your bet. Such lawsuits are historically successful in Pennsylvania.

That's good for you, but not relevant to your original post. In Pennsylvania, citizens are allowed to open carry. Your posts suggest you didn't bother to read the article or make yourself aware of local laws before you posted.
