There is a survey at the site. It looks like a good one to freep.

I’ll keep mine concealed, thanks.
Others may look at it differently, but I never want to give away the element of surprise.

I’m a whole heck of a lot more uncomfortable seeing people texting while driving than I would be seeing a holstered firearm. One of those is going to kill innocent citizens.

I support concealed carry without a permit. Although I would not do it myself, I firmly support open carry.

I don't accept such a bill as Constitutional...
Being the 2nd Amendment already covers such.

There are states where you can get in trouble for failing to keep your legally owned, licensed and carried gun properly concealed.
Open Carry will eliminate that hassle. I'm all for it.

Looking good so far.

It's called “open carry”
I thought it was called “constitutional carry”

Sounds like that “firearms store owner” is a Liberal plant.

>>>”I don’t think it’s fair to make those people feel uncomfortable, but the bigger part is, what happens when someone walks up behind the gun owner and pulls the gun out of its holster?
If they can do it with a run-of-the-mill civilian, they can do it with a civilian LEO, too. How often do you hear of that happening? A criminal is looking for a 100% chance of escape (in his mind). He knows that if he only has a 50/50 chance of getting the weapon in a grab - the reality being much lower - that he might die. A criminal does not want to die; he wants to enjoy his ill-gotten gains.
I don’t like OC, but I’m not about to tell a free man what he can or can’t do with his weapon in these United States. The likelihood of losing your open gun in a grab attack is not very likely.

A little known fact is that here in Michigan open carry has been on the books forever..(conceal carry requires a permit)......However, I’ve never seen anyone exercise that right.
