Im having a hard time locating it but I was under the impression that in a subsection of one of our IC codes one CANNOT be charged for either "disturbing the peace" or "disorderly conduct" simply by openly carrying with our LTCH.
Am I wrong or is it in there someplace?
Man it would suck to live that close to the communistic state of IL that it bleeds over that much!

I live about 5 blocks from the state line. It's really not that bad once you decide not to spend any money on the smelly side of the state line. We have plenty to choose from on our side. Besides, it's a good reminder for me to buy my beer on Saturday, like most other Hoosiers! Wish Indiana would repeal those antiquated blue laws.
You can carry out beer from a brewpub on Sunday. Since you live in Munster, Three Floyd's would be my recommendation (lucky devil...).
Yeah it's only if the beer in brewed onsite, but since Three Floyd's is so close...
Seriously, I am jealous. We can't seem to find it ANYWHERE in Indy. Used to be no one had heard of it and it was easy to find. Now that they've all tried it, it's nowhere to be found.
Sorry for the thread derail!
No, I wasn't charged for anything (today).
I briefly remember seeing it mentioned and wished to keep it in my notes app on my phone if I am ever stopped by LEO.
You might be thinking of Wisconsin. I seem to recall that in Madison and Milwaukee, police chiefs were talking about treating OCers as criminals, proning them out, etc., until lawful carry status could be confirmed. The AG gave an opinion that this was NOT DC. I'm not sure what (if any) effect this had on the police depts there, but that's what I recall.
Blessings,

you can't be charged for executing your right to carry a firearm openly, as long as you know the exceptions and you follow through
