Whether or not this wuss is “offended” is immaterial—He’s there to represent the interests of his constituents, not to act on his personal preferences.
Having said that, I also prefer concealed carry—Keep the bad guys guessing.
I’m a SC senior. I carry concealed all the time (and now even in Establishments serving alcohol). Open carry may be a “constitutional” right...but for me it is just “bling”... Look at me, I’m important, I have a gun...and it is stupid. Why advertise you have a valuable $600 piece that could be taken from you and used to kill you. Always best concealed...as stated above...keep ‘me guessing!
I prefer discrete carry. That is when someone would have to look closely to figure out you have a gun, but you can’t get in trouble with the law if someone DOES figure it out.
As I understand it, Constitutional Carry does not prohibit concealed carry. It allows any citizen who is not a felon or other prohibited person to carry a weapon, concealed or open.
There is a very good discussion of Constitutional Carry at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutional_carry.
I am a proponent of Constitutional Carry.
