Open Shotgun Carry in Austin

Ask your Attorney about doing anything that might get you sued or arrested they are going to say "NO".

Based on good advice from a forum member through PM, instead of asking, "Should I do this?", I will ask, "How can I do this legally?" It should get better answers, since instead of giving me advice whether I should, they're giving me advice on how I could.

What civil suits? Someone claiming emotional damages from seeing me with a gun?

You can be hit with a civil suit for anything. Doesn't matter if you win the suit, you're still financially ruined. "Emotional Distress" certainly seems like a reasonable scenario.

Thats true. But there are also actionable claims here. I am just hoping the UT attorney sets him straight.

Why question him? He's supporting your opinion on the matter. He's saying the attorney will recommend against doing anything that's easily avoidable with potential legal consequences.

There's no reason for the back-and-forth suggestions that have gone on in this thread telling others to do this. I welcome anyone that wants to join me, but the taunting isn't contributing anything worthwhile and is flaming, plain-and-simple.

I would if I could friend, I've blown my Gun Budget for the next 6 months.

I encouraging the OP to do what he said he wanted to do, I'm just offering him advice on how to do it. Depending on my schedule, I might even go out and show support. As far as carrying a Long gun, let me ask my Lawyer . right now I am the only income earner in my household and seeing as I'm Eyeballs deep in Law School debt I dont think now is the time for me to risk being arrested.

If you want to jump out of a plane, feel free, I suggest you grab a parachute. I aint jumping I'm afraid of heights.
