What this does is set you up for a bullet in the back before the real fun begins.

Show me an article where this actually happened to someone open carrying. I always read about these “what ifs” but these what ifs are pure nonsense made up out of whole cloth.
I’m not against open carry, it’s just that I would never do it in public. As I’m writing this I have a concealed Judge under my shirt, about to go to a veteran’s meeting with shopping before and after.
Now let’s say I go to the VVA meeting open carry, even though the majority of these guys proudly own guns, some will scratch their heads and wonder just why I would want to carry openly.
One place on my list is Walmart. There’s no way I want to be picked out of the crowd by a rat while carrying open and made a spectacle out of. I do not want my name in the news as brandishing a gun, even though it would never leave the holster.
To pack a weapon and knowing when and how to use it tends to ensure one’s safety, that’s what concealed is all about. I’m not an attention whore, I have no desire to be looked at like I have an arm growing out of my left temple.
How about you, do you personally open carry every place you go? Do you even carry concealed?
Now your remark: “Show me an article where this actually happened to someone open carrying.” I have no such article. The lack of such an article does not justify inviting such a thing to happen.
