Uh....excuse me.....in this case liquor was being served and in that event you CAN’T carry concealed - it’s a violation of the law. Open carry (or not carry) was the only alternative - a legal option! The man wasn’t doing anything illegal to be harassed in this manner.

I stand corrected. The "duh" comment was completely out of line. I did not realize that alcohol was being served at the event.

I am in full agreement that this man did nothing illegal and that the Norfolk police were completely out of line. I was just thinking that this whole thing would not have occurred had his weapon been hidden under a vest. Thinking about it now, this would be difficult with hot summer weather.

Just to let you know, I grew up in the Shenandoah Valley and took NRA Hunter Safety Courses as a youngster.
