So what. I just conceal-carried in WM. No more open carry for awhile for me— too many “SWATTings” have been happening. We’ll wait until after we win the war for that. For now, I want tactical advantage.

Like you implied. Open carry can draw unwanted attention. I am comfortable with concealed carry until we get America back.

conceal-carried . . . tactical advantage

Yep. If I ever have to draw (God forbid!), I want it to come as a complete surprise.

I conceal carry. Open carry tells bad guys who to shoot first

Exactly. CCWs are not impacted by these decisions. I always had second thoughts seeing some of the people that open carry. Some look sincere, some look like they are trying to prove something.

One really strange one was at Walgreens. A guy with a glock on his hip was arguing with the pharmacist about needing his "pain pills". The guy arguing put his hand on the butt of his weapon twice. It looked like habit or reflex. Never the less, it just had potential to go sideways.
