This public display of outrage is a tool of the Left. The idea is to create such a fuss that people will conform to whatever it is they want. Imagine some woman who sees your concealed carry weapon while you are standing in line at a cashier and starts screaming, “GUNGUNGUN! HE HAS A GUN!” You could be shot by a nearby officer even though you never touched your own gun. Probably, depending on the jurisdiction, nothing would happen to the screamer.

And that’s exactly what happened to me...in a Louisiana Walmart no less; an open carry state at that. I was standing in line waiting on the lady in front of me to finish checking out when one of these big, fat black banshees apparently saw the butt of my S&W Shield. Her butt was so wide, it made my one-ton Dodge Ram truck jealous. She started yelling her head off. Next thing I know, I’m talking to a deputy that immediately cuffs me and hauls me out to the back seat his cruiser. He takes my gun, cellphone, wallet and pocket knife from me and asked if I have a CC permit...which I did. He drops the magazine out of the gun, but too stupid to rack the slide so it’s still loaded with a hot one in the tube. By now, there are 3 other cruisers showing up all with the lights flashing. After about 15 minutes, he lets me out, uncuffs me, hands me my stuff back and tells me to leave and suggests not coming back. I haven’t been back and have since mustered nothing but a total lack of respect for these morons. The point is, she could have caused me to been shot by that “screaming antic”. I knew enough to keep my hands where the deputy could see them as he approached, but I knew it was gonna be “ugly”.
