Do you plan on OC'ing when you vote Nov 6th?

[Kutnupe14]

Glad you can choose if and when you'll need a weapon and will have the time to run back to the car or home to get it. I haven't attained that ability yet. Don't know about where you vote but where I vote there are NUMEROUS 4 year old girls with 70+years of experience helping out there!!!

Ok, I can't stand it anymore. I'll be that "moron." One CAN carry in the polls, fine no issue. But why make such a big hoopla about doing so? If you OC typically, do it. If you don't normally OC, what's the point of picking that day to do it over any other? A polling place isn't the place to stage a mass OC event. Why? Because you are going to put off a lot of people. And not just "average" people, but people who obviously VOTE.

I think the intention here is to show support for Clay who was not allowed to vote while OCing as he normally does. I normally OC when I can so that is what I will be doing.

Many people cannot carry at their polling place who would OC or CC so I think it gives some satisfaction that there will be be a conscious effort to show support for Clay and stand up for our rights.

My experience has shown most people don't notice, don't care or are inquisitive/supportive of OC when voting.

Why would you feel the need to? It can't be that dangerous in the State of Indiana to vote.

I'm thinking that the people you see in the news that have been attacked/raped/killed/beaten/etc. probably didn't think that was going to happen that day.

I carry every day/place I can. It's not a choice TO CARRY. I always do. I have to make a decision NOT TO CARRY.

Intersting tid bit for those of us in Vanderburgh Co. You can vote at ANY voting center no matter what your precinct. There are plenty of carry friendly places to choose from and I can promise one place in particular should be fine:

Salvation Army on Fulton Ave,too.

I plan to OC my G21 and my AR-15. I don't feel that one gun is enough to deter the gray hairs at my polling place from jacking my wallet. If they try, I wish them luck. It will be tucked under the ballistic panel of my body armor.

mally OC, what's the point of picking that day to do it over any other? A polling place isn't the place to stage a mass OC event. Why? Because you are going to put off a lot of people. And not just "average" people, but people who obviously VOTE.

Ok who suggested staging a mass oc event?
Who suggested anyone OC that doesn't normally OC?
Who suggested making a big hoopla about doing this?
Thought for sure I just asked if there was anyone else that was going to OC also.
Now carefully reach down and take the knot out of your panties. It will be ok.But thank you for volunteering,

You mean your phaser and tricorder?

I'm not going anywhere with a phaser and tricorder. If the away team is me, Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock and Bones, guess who's not making it back to the Enterprise.

This Thread = Hoopla

I don't agree with the idea, but hey, it's legal so have at it.

 

[SEIndSAM]

Nope, already voted. And it was at the county courthouse, so carry was a big no-no.

Since I only have my jury trial on misdemeanor charges on the 23rd and my hearing at the ISP for getting my LTCH back on the 30th, while I'll be getting my sidearm back from the THPD on the 23rd, it's doubtful that the ISP will be capable of getting me my LTCH before the 6th, so my firearm carry candidates are proscribed for me by statute to my rifle or my shotgun. I think I'll get a bandolier/strap for, and so be able to carry, my shotgun.

My polling place is the wholly city-owned Booker T. Washington Community Center, which is without school or day care facilities, so it's illegal for them to regulate my legal firearms carry/possession.

Booker T. Washington Community Center — City of Terre Haute Government

I'll be carrying printouts of the stories about Clay, printouts of IC 35-47-11.1, IC 35-41-3-2(i) and (k), and IC 3-5-4-4, and the paperwork of my acquittal/dismissal of charges for any LEO who hasn't gotten the memo yet that they can't continue with their jackbootery as usual. Hopefully, the message I give the city prosecutor in court will be properly delivered to the rank and file on the street and I'll have no problem. Ideally, the ISP will promptly return my LTCH and I'll be able to be discrete and simply OD a black handgun on my hip, but that's up to them, not me.

[zclevenger]

I would, but I have to absentee vote because of classes on the 6th

 

[Miles42]

No need to feed the fuel of anti gun people who also vote.

 

[9mmfan]

I usually vote on the way to work. Since I leave my gun in the car during work periods, I don't carry it. I leave it in a 'nondescript' item in my car. I just lock my car, go in and vote, come out and head to work.

Respectfully, it isn't any different than OCing any of the other 364 days of the year.

 

[Kutnupe14]

We starting a band? Rock-a-Billy, I'm assuming....

 

[AndersonIN]

I'm in! I say we call the band HOOPLA!

 

[ATM]

Yes. I've OCed every time I've voted and it's never been an issue.

Nah, for you we'd have to do Blues. You complain too much.
