I carry whenever I leave the house. It was a decision I made several years ago, to just do it. Every time. I’ll probably never need it. But if I ever do, I have sworn I don’t want that to be the day I decided to leave it at home.

But that said I’m not a big fan of the open carry movement. I think it’s pushy and I think it just frightens a lot of people that otherwise wouldn’t give guns a second thought, and would probably never vote to take guns away from anybody else. I know the open carry folks are just good ordinary people, but it’s just too easy for the enemy to use against us and make all of us look like nut-cases.

Preaching on a street corner is pushy, too. You against that?

I don't care if my exercising my right harelips the governor, I'll do it if I please. That's what rights are.
