I disagree. Open carry is safer, more convenient, and serves as a constant reminder of our rights.
Back in the 80s I could walk down main street with a shotgun slung across my back and no one batted an eye. We even went into the grocery store and bank with them and never gave it a thought. Today we can even open carry in the Michigan state capitol building.
Panic over open carry is just “reasonable” gun control and reasonable gun control is reasonably stupid.
If a stranger comes waltzing by with an AR-15 in your neighborhood, would you not be concerned? This is crazy.
