If you're gonna wear one, don't mess with that photochopped tiara... wear a real one! I know this one is real, I've seen it being worn!

Is it 'I've seen it being worn', or did you get your words mixed up and meant to say 'I've been seen wearing it'? :leaving

Guys,

If a sash, tiara, badge, or t shirt alerts the world that one is carrying, it seems to me that the debate is analogous to open carry; a choice I've always desired. I've heard the argument that the open carrier gets shot first, but I just can't imagine why anyone intending to shoot anyone would do it to, or around an individual who can clearly shoot back. If that were the case, police officers, Loomis drivers, and bank guards would have to carry concealed for safety sake.

When I carry concealed, I consider myself a lion dressed as a lamb; and it seems that without this silly "mandatory" costume, I would be less vulnerable to wolf attacks. If I were given the choice, I would wear the costume some places, and not in others; but I do want the choice. Perhaps the badge is silly, but I'm open to wearing something that shouts, "Avoid me, I can defend myself, and I will!" in some environs.

Please do not drift this into yet another open carry discussion.

If so, the thread will be locked.

It already is a discussion of open carry that has drifted into a photoshop contest. I mean, isn't the purpose of a CHL badge to openly inform the public that one is carrying a firearm?

No. That's what tattoos are for.

Ooooh. I hadn't considered a tatoo.

Not unless you pin the badge to your vest, drape your sash across the other side, and wear the tiara on your head. ;-)

Otherwise, concealed is concealed.

We don' need no steekin' badgers...

That's is exactly why this is about revealing one's carry status. You would indeed pin the badge on your chest, or otherwise show your garment in a conspicuous manner. My argument is if you don't want to talk about it, then don't; but this is indeed about whether the advertisement of one's carry status is a good idea.
Your latest photoshop indicates that you're against it. I don't care enough either way to make my own photoshop.
