The next 'loophole' we need to close is the 'walking across the street without permission' loophole, apparently. I feel sorry for this joker's clients if he's practiced law for almost forty years but is ignorant of that law, in the state where he resides, on a topic that he crusades about.

Mr. Gunn, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent article were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this thread is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. |

What we need is a law that only allows police to do with firearms what law biding citizens are allowed to do with firearms. This includes possessing weapons with a "fun" switch or other "non-sporting" features.
No more exceptions Edit: make it a constitutional amendment.

I had a chat with Mr. Gunn back in 1994 or so. He's been at this quite a while and struggles to remain relevant in the gun control arena in Utah. He and maybe 3-4 others held a "press conference" on some stupid gun control idea at the state capitol building. About 200 others (including me) were there as the opposition.
He seems like a nice enough guy as an individual, but is just mentally defective enough to truly believe that his positions have merit. |

Hey, Being from Utah we have always realized that Steve Gunn is a liberal cry baby, A nice personable guy, yes he is, but a on this subject he is a cry baby, alarmist, fear monger and suffers from "stinkin thinkin" in addition to being totally wrong. He is at odds with 90% of Utah's population. Don't pay any attention to him, because that's exactly what he wants. The only reason his editorial piece got published is that the Salt Lake Tribune is nothing but a liberal rag. A couple of years ago I sent him a copy of John Lott's "More Guns Less Crime". I doubt if he read it.

Slightly off-topic––-the article's author asserted that OC is only legal in UT if one is carrying with the chamber empty....for the UT folks: Is that true?

But the problem of open carry is not unique to colleges and universities. It presents considerable difficulties and danger to law enforcement officers. Last August a man dressed in full battle gear and holding an assault rifle was observed on Main Street near the Little America Hotel in Salt Lake City. He shot at and wounded a police officer who returned fire and killed the gunman. Had the shooter not opened fire or acted in an “angry or threatening manner,” legally he could not have been arrested or detained. Carrying an assault weapon on a public street is not a crime — not even a misdemeanor — in Utah. Seriously? That's the best argument he has? So if the idiot in Salt Lake City hadn't done anything illegal he couldn't have been arrested? Sounds like a sound legal reason to banning open carry. |

Translation:
"It scares me when I see citizens carrying guns. Sometimes I pee a little at the sight of a gun. If you rascist, selfish, freaks MUST carry your silly guns, I want you to cover it up. This will suffice until we can confiscate your precious weapons and deposit them into a blast furnace. Of course only a trained and specially permitted technician will be allowed to operate the blast furnace. Those are scary, too. Hopefully we can kill reeducate you rascist conservatives for the good of of the USSA once we take your guns." |
