Okay, you got me on that one. Still I think this guy went looking for a confrontation. He got what he wanted by sitting with his "strong side" out.

We can agree to disagree. I am impressed that you admitted to the error. That moves you up on the freeper scale. You might also consider Goldwater's dictum:

"I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue!"

Re: Goldwater's Dictum - I do not question his right to be armed. I have questioned his motives vis-a-vis his writing style and word usage.

What is the point of saying "my strong side out" in the first place? He wanted his weapon seen so that it would cause a reaction. Most people I know who carry are very reluctant to do it obviously for a variety of reasons but the most prevalent is they see no need for a confrontation.

This issue of OC is a controversial one whether we like it or not. The fact that he wrote the blog at all tells me that he wanted to flaunt his desire to OC.

Is OC the norm in NH or is it new.

Here in CT there was a recent ruling that there is nothing in the CT laws that prohibits OC yet I do not see people carrying openly.

I am impressed that you admitted to the error.

Hmmmm.... I got caught. Why not admit it and move on? Isn't that what honorable people do? But thanks for the kudos.
