Open carry is not a right. It's a dress code and comfort issue.
Wow, I am astonished on how little you know about the #2A

State v. Chandler, 5 La. Ann. 489, 490 (1850), the Louisiana Supreme Court held that citizens had a right to carry arms openly: “This is the right guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States, and which is calculated to incite men to a manly and noble defense of themselves, if necessary, and of their country, without any tendency to secret advantages and unmanly assassinations.”” – US Supreme Court – District of Columbia v. Heller

The court even recognizes a long-standing judicial precedent “…to consider… prohibitions on carrying concealed weapons.”
