I have a few questions about open carry of long arms. Is this considered 'legal' in NC? I recently heard of a fairly recent open carry 'rally' @ guilford courthouse. It seems to me that NC has restrictions on guns being at 'demonstrations, picket lines, or parades.' they seemed to cite being on national park land as being the cover for not disobeying the 'demonstrations or parades' clause in NC law. I thought the recent national parks gun bill allowed state law to dictate the legality of guns on these lands.
so to my questions:
what constitutes a 'demonstration, picket line or parade?' can 5 guys open carrying w/ 1 flag or sign constitute a 'demonstration? could open carrying a side arm at a farmers market that is held on private property or non state owned land be at all considered to violate the restrictions on guns at 'demonstrations?'
is it legal to open carry a long gun? loaded?
