Re: How to "desensitize" a town for Open Carry?
I have been thinking about this and think desensitizing is a good idea. BUT, I don't support the OCT method of desensitizing. I mean that I think we might consider proactive outreach to media and law enforcement to work with them on getting the message to the public that it is legal and not a cause for alarm. I don't know quite how to get the media to cooperate and run positive stories, but I think it might be a good idea overall to be proactive on this and ask them to remind people it is about to become legal and not to be alarmed. Maybe include how rare we think it will be. That might be a double edged sword because it could hurt us if we over publicize how rare even CHLs are in Texas, let alone what we expect of open carry.
