This is actually incorrect, it's illegal carry a loaded gun in public places anywhere in Portland, OR (including your vehicle)
That video is from Portland, Maine -- maybe you got it confused?

LOL this
It's pretty obvious by his tone (and the various laws that he recites) that he was planning on getting stopped and questioned by police and challenging them for the sake of youtube so it makes me question what he was doing to make people suspicious enough to call the police in the first place. Good thing I'm not that officer because if I was I would have probably just shot him, planted drugs on him, and then take an early lunch.
"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
Oh that's fucking great ! Thanks for the correction
The permit must just be for concealed.. I love the idea of just having a weapon. You know the most secure country in the world.
Switzerland.
Why? Every fucker has an AK and/or a gloc in their house. Swittzers on this thread correct me on the gun models ? I am considering moving there for that reason. People don't fuck with other people cause you'd get your ass shot. Love it.
Living in Switzerland and you are dead wrong.
a) Swiss guns, of course
b) The guns are allowed, ammo is not. If you are one of the few people allowed to keep ammo at home (emergency personell) It has to be kept in a safe box, you are not allowed to open it. Inspected regularly
Gun politics in Switzerland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
c) Switzerland is secure because it is fucking rich. Very few people here have real concerns.
Median Household Income is 100K USD
Unemployment rate is 4.1%
The Human Development Index is 0.93

Basically, Switzerland is a lot of small towns and a very secure, sheltered life in a beautiful country for most of the population.
Or put it like this:
If people feel safe and like their life, they will not go around shooting people.
::emp::
it's amazing to see how you stupid keyboard warriors are falling for someone who is just trying to provoke other people.
The guy is just real life trolling cops. WHO WOULD TAKE A GUN TO THE BEACH. and did you see the way he looks? Prolly busy stroking his gun and surely not the hair of a hot girl. like half of you trolls.
you fucking idiots disgust me. this used to be a forum with brilliant people making 100k+ a month... not some wannabe real life bullied kids rolling at 100$+ a month.
PS: To the idiot who wants to move to Switzerland.. I bet your wouldn't even manage to pass the first week (you'd need 12 to finish, then 3 weeks per year for the next 10 years) of military training that allows you to keep the Sig 552 at home.
<3 emp. He's got it layed out pretty nicely.

Perhaps if concealed carry were legal, he wouldn't be getting harassed by officers for exercising his rights...
good thing you've chosen WF as your platform of expression then
I mean 7,667 posts .. LOL
Or maybe, he was harassed previously as well and decided to educate himself about the laws, so he couldn't be harassed again.
Everyone is making assumptions about his "motive" and that's fine as we are all entitled to our opinions. However, one thing that is not subject to interpretation is his LEGAL ability to carry that gun and the fact that that cop had no right to stop him, detain him, take his gun, ask for a permit, ask for his ID or any of that shit.
All that shit doesn't matter unless the cop suspected him of not meeting that criterion.
Is it impossible for "brilliant people making 100k+ a month" to also like their constitutional right to keep and bear arms?
It's amazing to see how angry you become when someone acts legally and knows it, even if the authorities do not.
That happens all the time. People attribute motive, which no one can truly know.
All we can judge is action.
It pisses me off when people do that. Some things we just don't know.
I missed this, probably because your opening sentence sucked so bad.
This forum is shit right now, but you're not contributing anything worthwhile to it.
And you're so fucking angry. Is this who you are IRL?
I can't imagine you're a very nice person to be around, or to know. You come off as a real dickhead.
Maybe you think you're better than everyone else, and maybe you are marginally better than some, but you're doing it wrong. No one is going to read your post and agree with you if all you're going to do is insult them.
So maybe you're actually the child acting out, and the adults are the people who can discuss this intelligently, rationally.
Getting arrested can lead to lawyer fees and whatever else. Knowing the laws, having recordings and making them public - these are things that can make it less likely for people to get arrested and more likely for police to follow the laws properly.
My yearly detainment in Portland.
"I have been stopped by the Portland PD 7 times. The first time I was arrested and the charges were thrown out by the DA. I have not been arrested since. I have recordings of 4 of the encounters. They take place over the last 4 years."
if he walked into someones house to recite silly law stating that he is actually allowed to do that, whether true or not, id totally be on your side. hed deserve to get his ass kicked. but can you explain to me how it is a bad thing that theres someone out there reminding authority that they can actually not do whatever the fuck they want? maybe that cops pissed now, but so what? if hes pissed, he shouldnt have passed any regular psychology tests that should come with the job anyway. the cops are the fags in any video containing cops that gets posted. ever.
cops might have a hard job. so what? you dont take shit from any other person who might have had a hard day at the job.
Bump: Here ya go... now you'll all get to see how the State tries to strip your rights plays out in court...

Rifle was strapped to his back and not even in his hands. How can they charge him with brandishing?
Sounds like the cops are making shit up to save face for a poor arrest.
It's cool how buddy stood up for his rights and all, but I subscribe to the "don't talk to cops no matter what" mentality, so engaging them in an argument (or conversation) isn't what I would have done. I highly recommend this video (which was coincidentally linked to the right of OP's video): open carry a gun don't talk to the cops - YouTube
Not saying even a word isn't the best idea. It opens you up to all kinds of easy arrests. It's a much better idea to know the laws that you might come across, and know your rights.
Not saying a word is probably gonna get you arrested (although not charged) with something like possessing a firearm under the influence of drugs. I'm sure there's a million reasons for arrest they could come up with.
