Well, I can read. Mississippi law is written in English correct? I cite the MS. Constitution as my authority on the matter of OC. All you've done is given a lot of LEO type attitude. Hot air aint the law.
No. The Ms. Constitution says what the law is and the MS. Supreme Court can be wrong on occasion.
...but, by all means, show me what the Ms. SC has said on the matter of OC. Cite the case.
So, you have determined that the Mississippi Supreme Court can be wrong on occasion? And when you tell them they are wrong, do they correct the mistake? I did not think so!
Seems that I am not the only one possessing some "hot air."
For starters, work on this site: http://www.opencarry.org/?page_id=261
Now, since I am retired and have nothing better to do on this Friday night, I will utilize my computer skills in an attempt to find a clearly worded reference that even you can understand with cites, links, bright lights, and possibly even a few fire works exploding to highlight the view for you.
I will update as info becomes available.

I see why you want a specific cite or link for over and over you as well as many others refer to this opinion but never cite exactly where one could find it. My notes from my JPD Training Classes are long gone but I will continue to try to find the EXACT cite of this particular "opinion" which removed the right to open carry.

BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At 04:26AM by none other than 4angrybadgers!
The MS criminal statutes do not define concealment. The reason that a holster is (fuzzily) considered "partial concealment" is due to a concurring opinion by then-Chief Justice Lee in "L.M., JR., S.T. & D.S. v. STATE of Mississippi". The text was posted by gunluvinatty in this thread, about halfway down the page: http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/forum32/28581.html
Next: http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/showthread.php?72241-Mississippi-open-carry-in-the-news Again, all the confusion about the "opinion" written by some judge in a case dealing with juveniles and only partly with concealed carry of a firearm. Also, the opinion by Mike Moore's office is given.
I had about 10 or 12 more links for you but I forgot to "auto save" them and I lost them when I went to the SPECIFIC court case that discusses the "concealed" theory of interpretation by the court. Here it is:

Read it to your little heart's content. You may also might like to read this cite concerning a case in Jackson:
Clark v. City of Jackson, 155 Miss. 668, 124 So. 807 (1929)

georg jetson, I see that you have, according to this last link, been chasing your tail for two years now as of May 19! If you did not accept what was told you then, you will not accept the same info today, will you?
The Mississippi Legislature finally clarified what is "concealed carry." You should be happy and not argumentative just to be argumentative. But, I know that you cannot change what you are, can you?
Seems like with all the huffing and puffing that you have been doing for the past two years about the "stupid" legislators in Mississippi ruining the right to open carry with their, and various judges/AGs, "opinions" as to what is "concealed," that you would be celebrating this new law which goes into effect on July 1.
Since you were already aware of all this, I thank you for urging me to research this topic so that in the future when you spout off about it, I will be able to refresh your memory again. Do you suffer these "memory" lapses about every two years?
