The kid, was certainly illegal carrying in a public place without a permit. Maybe Dad thought his kid's gun was covered by his permit. The violation was technical, if at all.
What surprises me is the "outrage" of everyone here. It appears everybody here does like gun control laws, at least for kids. There were no safety violations, so the outrage is simply the possibility that the gun control laws were violated.
I disagree.............my outrage is that that dad by being plain stupid or completely lacking in common sense may cost me the ability to carry in the future.
No safety violations were seen doesn't mean they didn't happen outside, or might not have happened had they not been called on it. For all we know the two of them were getting ready to "quick draw" at the range.
