Maine Open Carry rally fails to spark protest

Aug 16, 2011

A get-together Sunday promoting the right to openly carry a firearm did not spark the kind of protests and backlash seen last year.

Shane Belanger and Forrest Brown were the first to arrive Sunday, Aug. 14, at Back Cove across from Hannaford grocery store. They were the organizers of an event bringing together proponents of "open carry," sponsored by the Maine Open Carry Association. They each had a visible firearm in a holster, which makes the point they’re trying to get across, that people have the right to carry a firearm openly in Maine.

fails to spark protest
I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT WAS THE OBJECTIVE
 
A police lieutenant and sergeant stopped by and identified themselves to the two organizers, telling them if they had any problems someone would be nearby to assist.

I'm sure that was very comforting to know.... :wacko:
