Leader of Second Amendment advocacy group considering lawsuit after being turned away at Tulsa Oktoberfest


The leader of an Oklahoma Second Amendment advocacy group said Tuesday he plans to take legal action after Tulsa police officers refused to allow him to enter Oktoberfest while in possession of a concealed handgun.

Oklahoma Second Amendment Association President Don Spencer posted a video on YouTube of an encounter Friday between him, at least two retired officers working event security and at least three Tulsa police officers. In the video, which is almost nine minutes in length, Spencer presents his Self-Defense Act license and tells the officers state law allows him to be on the premises at River West Festival Park with a concealed firearm.

But about six minutes and 45 seconds into the clip, Sgt. Chris Witt says to Spencer, “You can step outside here or you can go to jail for trespassing. Your choice. Right now.”

Spencer asks Witt multiple times for his name and badge number, which Witt eventually provides. Witt is heard telling Spencer before doing so that “I know what the law is,” and again says Spencer can be jailed on a trespassing complaint.
