Frankly, I'm against "concealed carry" laws. I want everyone with a gun to have to carry it in the open where I can see it. I don't want to get into a fist-fight in a bar with a guy with a sneaky "hide-out" as they used to be called in the Old West.

Having the people with guns wearing the guns on the outside of their clothing defeats the purpose of conceal carry and does little to prevent crime.

If a criminal does not know if you are carrying or not, they will be cautious. But if everyone HAS to wear their gun in plain view, criminals can prey on the unarmed.

Err, why get into a fist fight in the first place?

That's a much different situation than defending oneself from criminal attack...

I don't want to carry my gun out in the open where it could be grabbed by someone in a crowed area. In Texas, I can't carry in a bar anyway and I have no intention of getting into fistfights.

I'm not sure what the laws are everywhere, but here in Colorado, as a paperboy, I saw a trucker in Denny's with a revolver on his hip. It was the first time I ever saw anyone with a gun besides a cop.

I don't think you have to worry about this unless you deserve a punch in the nose

I agree with the person who said that criminals will prey on the unarmed if people were forced to wear their firearm in plain view.

Do you go LOOKING for fights in bars? I guess everyone needs a hobby lol
