Well I think they were referring to 18-12-105 section 1 subsection C which states:
A person commits a class 2 misdemeanor if such person knowingly and unlawfully: Without legal authority, carries, brings, or has in such person's possession a firearm or any explosive, incendiary, or other dangerous device on the property of or within any building in which the chambers, galleries, or offices of the general assembly, or either house thereof, are located, or in which a legislative hearing or meeting is being or is to be conducted, or in which the official office of any member, officer, or employee of the general assembly is located.
But the part I don't like is they are purposefully leaving out section 2, subsection C which sates (as you highlighted):
It shall not be an offense if the defendant was: A person who, at the time of carrying a concealed weapon, held a valid written permit to carry a concealed weapon issued pursuant to section 18-12-105.1, as it existed prior to its repeal, or, if the weapon involved was a handgun, held a valid permit to carry a concealed handgun or a temporary emergency permit issued pursuant to part 2 of this article; except that it shall be an offense under this section if the person was carrying a concealed handgun in violation of the provisions of section 18-12-214;
I'm just immensely surprised and disappointed they are handling it the way they are. I won't let it stop me from going... we all need to be there if we can. But I will let it stop me from going into the park. If they are willing to twist and bend the law to try and get good, law-abiding citizens arrested... I want NO part of that. I'll stand across the street near a restaurant with a restroom.
