what i like about open carry is, for instance, today was cold, i had on a coat. I could go into a restaurant, where it is warm, remove my coat and be comfortable without having to worry about displaying my weapon. if i'm asked to leave, so be it. i won't return - ever.biomass1 wrote:I think we're going to be hearing a lot more about people not knowing/misinterpreting the law on OC. The President is determined to leave some kind of legacy from his administration and I think we'll see a full-court press against guns and gun owners in the coming year. To that end the anti-gun crowd will skew the facts, laws and statistics to get what they want and they will be trying to make OC'ers lives as miserable as possible. They will probably make law enforcement's life miserable in the process.
Personally, I think Open Carry is a really bad idea. The general public does not know the law and even if they do has no way of knowing if the carrier is licensed or not. All they see is "a man with a gun". The only good thing I see in the new law is that you haven't committed a violation if you inadvertently expose your weapon.
