Good for them. Open carry is not my cup of tea, but I’m glad others choose to test the envelope. That’s how we keep our freedom: “if you don’t patrol it, you don’t own it.”
Bingo!! This needs to occur more frequently so the general populace becomes more desensitized.
Same here - MS finally has true open carry, but I still stay concealed. I'll let other brave souls help LEOs work out the bugs... That said, I have not had to worry about an accidental exposure and have carried concealed, a couple times, in a way that let others be able to intuit pretty easily that I was armed to see if there would be any reaction - it seems that the folks in MS aren't shake-in-their-pants liberals because I got a couple glances and no heavy reactions.
