I agree with OP 100%, whether I'm in a guns store, big box store, or even a gun show, you MUST be aware of your surroundings. I've been to many gun shows where young guys handle guns like toys, acting out their favorite movie scene. Why the vendor doesn't respectfully ask them to put the gun down, I don't know, but not everyone at a gun show is a responsible person.

What I don't get about this open carry thing is that some proponents of open carry say, "well, people shouldn't be afraid of guns", or "when I was a kid, people had gun racks in their trucks.''

To that, I say - wake up. Our currently reality doesn't allow us to think that a guy walking down the street with a rifle on his shoulder is just a good guy exercising his 2A rights. Or the guy in Wallyworld is just carrying his rifle because he can. How do you know they're not the next one to snap? I'm not about to follow him around and shake his hand and say "good job". I want to be as far away from that person, and rather than confront him, everyone should leave and let the cops verify that he's a good guy.

That's not being anti-2A, that's just being responsible to my family.
