open carry isn't a 2nd amendment right, open carry is legal in louisiana, but not every other state, its legal here but you can be asked to not carry in some places, you can be denied business or asked to leave, or you can be harassed by cops because people keep calling them because your walking around with a gun and they have to respond because its a public safety issue. the 2nd amendment was for the ownership of firearms, not the right to carry one. now if a state has open carry laws and someone is arrested for openly carrying a firearm, that person can sue the PD for violation of a civil right that the state has given the citizen.
Open carry is legal but not smart! you can't walk in a bank, government building, place of worship or any place that sells alcohol, if are intoxicated at or over .05% bac you can be charged with a illegal weapons charge. Best part is since you are not legal age to buy a gun who ever bought you that gun did a straw purchase, which was illegal! also if you are going to carry a gun, you better know the aggressor law, which pretty much states the aggressor can't claim self-defense, which pretty much explains why a lot of people go to jail for murder when they think they are defending themselves! if your gonna carry you better know LA R.S. 14:18- 14:22. word for word.
