Detroit Michigan Open Carry Picnic at Belle Isle Park Recap - 8/22/2010

This past Sunday, we executed an Open Carry Potluck Picnic at Belle Isle Park in Detroit, Michigan. In all, it was an excellent event that went exactly as planned - no negative incidents.

Prior to the date of the picnic, it was only natural for the organizers to entertain all types of worst-case scenarios that could have marred the event. Fortunately, none of those things came to fruition.

One potential issue at Open Carry events is local enforcement officers. In some Michigan communities, police officers either "forget" or were never taught/trained that open carry of a firearm is legal. In our case, the police officers that "dropped by" actually knew the law. They snooped around for a bit but left after correctly assessing that we were only law-abiding citizens exercising our right to bear firearms.

Other issues that can occur at open carry events are encounters with curious onlookers or individuals who are curious why everyone is armed at the picnic bench. These encounters allow us to educate the general public about the legality of open carry of a firearm in Michigan. However, no one dropped by our shed despite the fact that the park was "jam-packed" on that date.

Thus, with basically no contact outside of our group of about 50 folks we fellow-shipped amongst ourselves. In my humble opinion, the best part of these outings is making new friends with people who are just as passionate about freedom and gun ownership as yourself.

Conversations throughout the day covered the entire spectrum of gun related topics, from recent self-defense cases in the headlines to the nuances of Michigan firearms law. Despite the fact that an ancillary 20x20 tent was set-up, everyone stayed in the smaller shed.

The event ran officially from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. I personally didn't leave until about 8 p.m. to ensure that we left the area better than we found it when we were setting up earlier in the day.

We had a great event. There were no problems, the food was great, and all had a great time. In fact, several attendees were gently suggesting that we do another event before the start of "snow season." I'll give the matter some thought, but no promises st this point.

The Man Raphael Johnson Murdered: John Havard - Part I

In this video Fred Havard, the brother of John Havard who was murdered by Raphael Johnson, shares his opinions and thoughts. In 1992 Raphael Johnson was convicted of the Second-Degree Murder of John Havard and spent on 12 years of a 10 - 25 sentence in prison. In July of this year, Johnson had been informally named/appointed by Detroit Mayor Dave Bing to be a member of the Board of Police Commissioners despite being a convicted murderer. As of now, his appointment is in limbo as Detroit City Council can reject/block the appointment.

Web Site Fighting Raphael Johnson's Appointment by Mayor Dave Bing to the Detroit Board of Commissioners Launched

A new page fighting the appointment of Mr. Raphael Johnson to the Detroit Board of Police Commissioners has been launched. Johnson murdered a man in 1992 and served 12 years in prison on a 2nd Degree Murder conviction. We feel that Johnson's background disqualifies him from having an authority role over the Detroit Police Department. Accordingly, we oppose his appointment.

Visit our page on Facebook and "like" it! Your vote puts pressure on the Detroit City Council to properly reject Johnson's appointment.
