Evidently there were no MDA's there.mojo84 wrote:Saw a guy in a small central Texas store with his cover shirt hooked on his gun exposing it entirely. He had been out hunting and had it in a decent leather holster. Some of the folks I was with said they saw him also. There was no panic and no one said anything to him. I was a few people behind him in line and watched people closely to see their reactions. Several people noticed as I could see them looking at it but it wasn't a big deal.
I think if people act appropriately and don't try to draw attention to themselves, I don't think there will be a big panic and overreaction.

Re: If and When OC Passes, The Best Way to Do It Discussion
How a person carries a firearm should not be a concern of the general population and should not be mandated by law. What happens if the person somehow injures another person should be of concern to the people and can be mandated by law.
If I have a firearm in my pocket and "ACCIDENTALLY" shoot someone when I stick my hand into my pocket, I am and should be held fully accountable for the alleged "ACCIDENT." There should be mandated repercussions for my stupidity. There should be mandated repercussions for the degree of injury that I have caused. There should be nothing mandating I have to have it in a certain style holster, that should be "common sense" from training and logic.
I think this is where society and lawmakers go wrong. They want to penalize an item and the people that own that item instead of penalizing the act that was commited using the item.
