Don't be stupid

Has anyone ever heard of "intent of the law" ask a lawyer... this is what the judge said that came into our class. The intent of the law is that ccw holders inform officers of their permits. You will probably not go to jail for this but you could very well have a fight on your hands is the point the judge was trying to make. Anyone wants to test the court system in an attempt to prove himself correct, be my guest. The "intent" of the law is still there and is used almost daily in court cases. The law does not specifically state that you do not have to inform if not carrying so then it becomes intent.
And yes I do take my ccw license very seriously and constantly read and keep updated on any changes. And yes I know the laws "very well". I also know what the term 'intent of the law" means, just look at the number of persons serving time for failure to obey the "intent of the law" and you will see many do not know what that means.

The intent of the law (as it is written) is so that the LEO knows ahead of time when he is dealing with someone that is armed...not someone that has a CCW.

You just never know when one of those walleye will attack you with those nasty big teeth, so I am prepared!

LOL~This time of the year it is not their teeth that I am worried about, the boy eyes have a much nastier weapon at their disposal, and they use it with reckless abandon almost like they have no control over it.

When I originally posted this thread, I could never have imagined the can of worms I opened. I have enough bait to last me the whole season and then some. 4,200+ hits!!!
Unreal. Let's close the book on concealed carry and get back to fishing, or to be more accurate, catching those elusive Lake Erie walleye. And the choir sang "AMEN......."

Exactly. The intent of the notification law is that an officer knows when you are armed.

For the final time, there is NO requirement to notify when unarmed. None at all. I have posted the Ohio Revised Code section explaining this, so why are we still arguing it? I've already cited Ohio law as my reference lol

If you still insist there is, Airshot, I challenge you to post that section of the ORC that details Failure to Notify while unarmed. Heck, even post a link to where somebody got ticketed for "intent of the law" as you say, for Failure to Notify while unarmed.

I think you're just a little confused on this, or that misinformed judge got you too. Check out OhioCCWForums.org , and ask the guys there. That is Ohio's absolute best firearms forum.

ANYWHO, back to fishin!!!
