Someone tried to run me over while open carrying! - Page 3

In Orange County they put up red light cameras to try and stop bad drivers from running lights and the lawyers got hold of it and sued to stop their use. This has been going on for 2 years. If you were to open carry here or not they would run over you just for the heck of it.

I turned and yelled at him since the window was open and had my hand near my pistol cuz I had no idea if he was going to continue to run me over...He looked pretty scared. I continued to walk and he tried to go around me where upon he almost hit me AGAIN...If he had hit me and I was capable I'd have drawn at the guy...The guy behind him turned as well...I think I'm going to stand at that intersection with a video camera and open carry and record everyone who runs the light.... of course the police can't do anything unless they witness it....so maybe it's useless.

OK.

This is a very different statement than your title and opening post suggest, and sounds more accurate, to me. Others have taken issue with your consideration of deadly force in reaction to a failure to yield and near accident. I'm interested in hearing the open carry issue you wanted to discuss?
