Is a felon more likely to open carry or not?

Used to do it but got tired really quick of ignorant people who didn't know the law and tried to get in my businesses or call the law. That being Saud juat because I don't do it I could are less if somone elese does. Heck you could be be buying avadocos at Wal-Mart with a Barrret M107 slung across your back and if your not hurting anyone why should I care or anyone else.

That being g said with he protests I feel it shows people WILLING TO THINK FOR THEMSELVES that hay....these guys are out here with all these scary guns that the new people say make people violent .....but no one is really being violent....mabye the guns arnt the problem !

Semi-related.......I can't think of a time in the past 50 years I ever needed a weapon.....at least for personal security. Not once. My oldest kid worked at Walmart for a while........middle of the night, stocking shelves. They had a mugging murder of an employee in the parking lot. After that, he got a weapon and kept it handy. I could see that.

But how many have ever needed to pull their piece? I have no problem with either open or concealed carry, I'm just wondering how big of an issue it is?

I kind of understand the reasoning during a protest as you are trying to draw attention to your cause.

Just in everyday life, open carry is a huge tactical DISadvantage.

I see open carry guys as just showboaters. Probably need a hug more than anything.

I prefer concealed carry also unless trapping, the open carry guy take the attention off of the concealed carry guy I like that. LOL

Also feel it shows the politicians that us lowly peasants and surfs arnt afraid to come out armed, very well armed in many cases... and in numbers when when we get fed up with their crap.

Option A: listen to us and start caring about the people again while we are being nice and restrained with said
numbers and arms
-OR-
Option B: we can use said arms and numbers and be not so nice to get out point across

Yes it seems rather radical but.........

I also agree. I have attended the pro gun rallies in Harrisburg. I have open carried there. But that was a special occasion and I was making a statement to our legislature along with many others.

For day-to-day routine I much prefer concealed carry.


Eh...wot?
