Re: open carry bill filed

I'm no lawyer, but what is so hard about leaving 30.06 notice alone for concealed carry and just letting a combination of gun busters and verbal notice suffice for open carry? That is, that a gun buster (or generic "no guns") would prohibit open carry, but let there be some verbal notice required before it becomes criminal trespass. Seems like that would make everyone happy.

Or better yet just make an MPA-like exception that states if you aren't doing bad things and aren't prohibited by law from posessing a handgun and it's not concealed then it's ok (ie constitutional open carry... not anytime soon, I know). Would be so clean and simple and would leave CHLs alone. The fact that the MPA has not led to blood in the streets seems to be pretty good evidence that this isn't likely to be a problem. The "no guns" policy of businesses could be handled the same as their "no shirt, no shoes, no service" polices

Does anyone know what dual points of resistance means? my holsters all provide resistance on both sides of the gun so would that do?
