    I'm not a lawyer...but my understanding is state law preempts local ordinances with the exception of the city and county of Denver.

    But that's not to say you wouldn't be hassled and/or arrested, but my guess is that you would win the fight pretty easily utilizing any competent lawyer. It's just matter of you wanting to spend the time to fight it.

    Thankfully I don't plan of OC while jogging, (hell concealed while jogging int practical) so its not an issue per say.

    Doesn't mean I'm ok with them trying to infringe.

    You are correct, except there is no state law that says you can open carry, so it is not an issue for them to say you can't OC on city land. This is the case for most city owned parks in the metro area.

    State law devolved the open carry questions to local governments, at the same time it reserved regulation of CCW to the state.

    The only exception to state pre-emption is that Denver was allowed to keep its home-grown "AW Ban" on magazines over 20 rounds.
