This evening I was lucky enough to have a mildly heated discussion (him not me) with someone about whether it was legal to carry a gun in any public place in Vigo County. I was even asked if I wanted him to call the cops and spend a night in jail in order to test it out.
The whole situation was laughable. I respectfully argued why he was wrong, even if he did have a police officer family member. He kept coming up with more and more ways that the police would try to arrest me. Apparently peace officers take people to jail without cause and knowing they won't file charges on a regular basis.
All of this started because he saw someone OC at Texas Roadhouse, and I jokingly asked if a gunfight broke out. "No, but I could have called the police. It is illegal to carry a weapon in a public place."
I did learn that I "think I can do whatever I want."
I hope I was right, otherwise I will apologize and thank him for not turning me in!
