Off Topic, yes maybe, something to keep an eye on for sure.

Thanks for posting this.
I get the sense the Vancouver PD is not at all friendly to OC. I'm aware of at least two cases where the charges appeared trumped up and ridiculous and now, here is a third.
From those with experience, what can we do to exercise our right to carry and be free from LEO harassment?
It's infuriating to think the local government can ignore the law and actively work to trample our rights just because they "don't like it".
The way to defeat the ignorance is to display insurmountable stregnth and agility to the po-po. 20 or 30 open carriers coming together and breaking apart using flash mob assembly techniques would be a very nice first class for those that abuse a disabled veteran.
This happened five minutes from my house....... There are local reports that the VPD has been instructed to make people that open carry "Miserable" I say the best thing to do is open carry as often as possible until the judges in Clark county get tired of trumped up charges and finally slap the VPD down.
If it is official policy, then it would be a violation of Title 18, Chapter 13, Section 241 of the US Code -- Conspiracy against rights. That there is a federal level felony and the entire chain of command might be guilty. Perhaps a complaint to the FBI or DOJ is in order?

Great legal theory, the problem will be getting Jenny Durhkan to care about your open carry rights. And that's assuming the FBI will even exert the effort to return your letter.
Anyone can make a PDR. But, if it is an open case, they'll likely tell you, "No."Someone needs to get all of the communications and dash cam video as well before it disappears.
Can anyone do this or only involved parties?
One can ask. Do you really think they'll tell you? It's highly unlikely that there is an "official" policy directing them to violate peoples civil rights.Can FOIA be used to determine if the VPD does have marching orders to make life miserable for OCers?
Ask nicely. When they say no, sue 'em.What is the correct legal approach to get them to behave themselves?

though I wonder how someone gets trespassed if they aren't at the property and they left when they were asked to.
Take them to court.
This is Truth!!
This is Truth!
This way......
Tuesday morning, Worley pleaded not guilty to a charge of trespassing with a weapon capable of producing bodily harm. Police said he first went to a Burgerville restaurant with a rifle slung over his shoulder. An employee called 911.
Vancouver police spokeswoman Kim Kapp said a security guard told Worley to leave and called police when he didn’t.
By the time police arrived, Kapp said Worley had walked to a fireworks stand in the Big Al’s parking lot. Employees closed the stand because they were worried about what Worley was up to. An employee at Big Al’s called 911 while the business went into lockdown.
