Not that simple. Many people carry 7x24 in their home. They have to make the choice of carrying and alienating their guests that may be uncomfortable with open carry, going concealed, or IMO the best is to try and educate the guests on why you carry. Many times you can win them over and they will be more comfortable after they see you are not some gun-crazed lunatics. The worst that can happen is you may lose friends that just don't understand.

So, bottom line, my house, my rules. If I want to OC, then so be it and the guests that I have can either live with it or I can choose to not have them as guests.
