I really don't understand why people with Chl's want to open carry? The only thing it tends to prove is that there really are gun nuts out there and the law abiding citizens such as myself seems to get thrown in with the rest!
Please tell me who REALLY needs to know you have a firearm? ?
Would you people PLEASE tone it down! !!!

Walking around with an open firearm does not look cute nor will it PROTECT any better than concealed.
Law enforcement, Military, and Armed officers are the only people who need to have open firearms.

So, my being law enforcement, means I should only carry on or off duty then? Does that mean I can't get off work, open carry my Glock 22 in my duty rig, meet up with TAM, and enjoy some tacos? Depending on your answer, I may or not be able to carry according to your opinion. Following that, if you answer that I can open carry off duty because I'm LE, what does that mean for TAM. What would the difference between my carrying and and TAM carrying in a simular rig? Would that subsequently make everybody around us less safe? What if I'm in uniform wearing the same rig, does that suddenly make it different aside from professional appearance?

Please, enlighten me as to how you could possibly figure this? You so called fact is Indeed a LIE, and such lies are not tolerated here, so please rebuke your statement.


I intended to ignore this post when it was written, but I found it hard to ignore the blatant ignorance towards other forum members and the posting of false information without any truth, nor any apologies or attempts to reddem oneself. Sorry if I am being harsh, but seeing these comments again has forced me to say something.

I think there is a possibility that said one could calm down and peacefully participate in conversations. But the insults and accusations need to stop. If one has a point, make the point, don't just "shout" what "is" and what "isn't" right in your opinion, as that goes nowhere quickly.

There are valid points to both arguments, but it is ones choice on how they carry, and we should all respect that, and not call each other names. Have fun guys & gals.

Everyone here (who doesn't agree with me) is a troll. Oh and Glocks stink and 1911's rule!

Oh goodness, here we go.
