Up here, folks would totally freak out if they saw a shotgun by my front door
Oh Mo, you really need to get down to the south. Missouri just finally passed conceal and carry law. But,it has always been the right of to carry in full view. Hence, you would see men and women wearing an arm in full view in public. It is not alarming. And it is not alarming for visitors in my home to see a shot gun in the corner of my foyer. LOL
