Wait, but he said it was legal since it wasn’t loaded. Weren’t you listening?!??

"CITIZEN'S ARRAYEST! CITIZEN'S ARRAYEST!"

I for one feel safer knowing that he was arrested not for trespassing, but because he didn’t pay the king for the privilege of exercising his rights.

I tend to agree with your snark. That said, the law is clear and easily accessible to everyone, and I am not permitted to turn the proverbial blind eye in furtherance of my political views. I'll go out of my way to educate anyone who asks, but I cannot and will not risk my job over politics.

Would never ask you to. I feel better for you being out there.

Right? Had he had a full length rifle he's legal to carry it with no license.

If you're trying to make a point, at least take a few minutes to make sure you're doing it legally.

Yeah, this type of activity isn't helpful. The LTCH thing aside, doing this out in public I wouldn't have an issue with, but not realizing the difference when on public properties something else. Hopefully he will learn his lesson and seek to become more educated on his rights, and engage in the political process to effect change for those things he doesn't agree with.

With this on his record I seriously doubt he will be able to legally carry for some time if ever.

I'm not being snarky or disrespectful, truly asking. I thought you do have discression?
Not that this guy deserved it.

Marion county so the judge will probably let him go the next day and appologize to him for any inconvenience and let him know he's getting out in a day because no one was shot. If you shoot people you have to spend a week in jail in Mario county then you can be let go to reoffend and may be kill police the next time.
The judge will probably also encourage him to file a lawsuit so he can collect a couple hundred thousand dollars for his time.

SBR vs pistol aside, I know its legal to carry an AR15 around in public and I have no problem with that as it should be legal. However, in this day and age with mass shooting and the like, I don't think its a good idea. People are going to assume the worst if they see someone walking into a store with one strapped over their shoulder. It just causes needless "panic". I wish we lived in a world where guns weren't viewed as evil but this is where we are.

Yes and no. Some things we do have a good amount of discretion on, this isn't one of them.

It's like you stole their playbook....

 

[Ark]

It's really easy to chip away at the 2A when people like this are considered representative of gun owners in general.

We should be strongly discouraging this behavior.

 

[Vigilant]

A lot of SBRs are handguns for Indiana law purposes.

All SBR’s and I believe machine guns, are pistols as far as IN law is concerned?

 

[Roland of Gilead]

I'm wondering if this wack job got banned from here and later arrested by the same person.

This guy had to have mental illness to be so out of touch with some of the basic laws of this state?

Not quite. Indiana is in-line with federal law on NFA items. The items that are considered "handguns" in Indiana are things such as pistol-grip-only shotguns. SBR's that have a barrel of <16" or OAL ,<26" would require a permit to be carried.

Not banned yet!

 

[Cameramonkey]

You arrest him and seize his weapon and give a good curb stomping? Or just take his wallet?

You are confusing IMPD and ISP. IMPD curb stomps. ISP steals wallets. Get it straight!

VUPDblue, thank you for sharing this account with us. Your service is appreciated.

It's too bad that dumb-asses like this give the rest of us a bad rep.
