But someone really needs to clarify, was it private property or not and if so, if you are asked to leave (in Alaska) can you be arrested for defiant trespass. You can here. I am trying to understand why he was arrested then unless it was for trespass. Typically disorderly conduct does not apply for political sign carrying. Again I do not agree at all with his views, just trying to understand the situation that lead to his arrest and take down in such manner. One cannot be arrested for having political views others don't like but one can be for trespass in this state on private property. Please clarify. if Alaska is a free carry state then his possession of a firearm was legal and should not be an issue in the discussion, unless he pulled it, but I didn't see that .. did anyone read why they arrested him what the charges were?
