Gun Law - 4th Circuit

The 4th circuit has ruled that open carry of a firearm is not probable cause for a stop. This assumes that open carry is inherently legal in the first place.

The 4th circuit covers Maryland, the Carolinas, and the Virginias.

Colorado is an open carry state with Denver taking the position that the state constitution does not apply there. Interestingly the Colorado Supremes have gone along with this.

That last paragraph almost caused me to spew coffee out my nose. Please be careful with your writing. I don't need a keyboard full of spew.
