It isn’t difficult to get a concealed carry permit in Oregon. Hopefully he and others will learn from this. On the other hand, when Antifa can carry and conceal their face they are following the lead of the KKK. The laws exist to stop this if the DA were willing to prosecute. This is all on the DA and major Wheeler. Again, we need to learn from this and fund DAs with a backbone.
I work with people that live in Portland. They are in total denial of the situation.
If he had some kind of a pellet gun, I don’t think you need a concealed-carry permit. Those aren’t legally classified as guns. I have a Byrna pepper-spray pistol, and it does not require a gun permit.
