Got an email reply from the Sheriff this morning. Here is his reply:

Thank you for the complimentary words about our officer. I am curious how he knew that you were armed. Did you mention it, or was it visible at the time?
In answer to your question, the fairgrounds is rented by the Agricultural Society from the county during the fair. The renters have set certain prohibitions for the property including firearms and alcohol. The Society contracts for security.

My email:

Sheriff ,

Hello, I was at the Porter County Fair yesterday and while I was carrying my sidearm with me and was asked politely to take it back to my vehicle. I complied and when I got home I read up on the laws about carrying at the fair. I have found out that if the fair ground is owned by the county and run by the county then it is illegal to enforce signage posted on the fences. If I am wrong would you be able to provide me with the law of which can be enforced?

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Me

My email:

Ryan,

In your email to the sheriff you stated "...it is illegal to enforce signange posted on the fences..." and so far as I can tell that is NOT TRUE.

They can enforce a POLICY that is put in place by the operator of the fair since the fair is a private operation. The agricultural societies are typically NOT government agencies, departments, etc.

However, if the fair is run by a government agency (which it apparently is not) then it would be illegal to enforce the signage, and in fact the signage itself would be suspect and they probably could be forced to remove the signs.

 

[jedi]

Shameless plug for your other halves...
For the record Jedi has NOTHING to do with this as it's in snobland!

Yup doing a bit more digging it looks like in 2009 the Porter County Agricultural Society Inc was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) and made into a private entity.
Info here:
501(c)(3) Lookup: PORTER COUNTY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY INC
and
Porter County Agricultural Society Inc Profile - Valparaiso, IN 46383-9560 - Single Location 2487956
and
Porter County Agricultural Society Inc - Valparaiso, IN - (219) 462-0321 - Manta

So in essence a private biz is running the PORTER county fair as such they can set whatever rules they want for the event including "no firearms" and if you take a firearm and it is found while you are NOT breaking any laws (just the rule for the event) you will be asked to leave. You have to leave at that point.

All I can say is
