The poll says “in public” so I guess it means concealed or open.
I personally would not open carry but I have no problem if people do. I just think concealed carry gives me the edge.
Concealed carry simply gives a predator a false sense of security when they attack you on the street. If you open carry you are much less likely to be attacked in the first place.
Further, when you open carry, the people around you are much less likely to be attacked since everyone can see that there is a citizen with a gun nearby.
I’d rather not be put in a situation where I’d have to draw my gun. If it’s concealed that’s exactly what might happen.
Better to have it in view.
