had an opportunity to be on a community college campus in Kinston over the weekend and two gentlemen were open carrying while attending, not instructing, a class with fifty other students. when approached about wearing a firearm while on campus they flatly stated even though they were off duty, and from around the durham area, they could do whatever they chose cuz were police.
my search of both NC statutes and federal regulations failed to find any such proviso regarding off duty law enforcement out of their jusidiction being exempt from appropriate firearm laws while on educational property?
yes, i found NC statutes allowing for LE to carry in the performance of their duty(ies)!!
i think what galled me the most was their attitude of WEARE police and can do whatever we want whenever we please!
thoughts from the peanut gallery on how to proceed?
