So in this case, you would allow 10 people to walk by carrying a firearm openly, and only inspect the weapon(s) if you had reason to believe it was loaded illegally?

I don't know you're asking me to compare the situation between someone possibly violating a city ordinance and someone possibly violating a Felony State Statute. You're asking me to compare a situation where someone may fall down in the street gutter drunk and one where if the wrong person open-carries something bad could happen.

What do you think the answer should be? I mean does 97% of the population in IL walked around open-carrying their handguns with it being an everyday common occurrence? Or does Illinois still have overly stringent unconstitutional gun carry laws in which 99.99% of the population doesn't walk around open-carrying? Can you logically deduce this out?
