people open carrying have nothing to hide.at least theoretically.
people shouting scripture from the street corner put me on edge. it doesn't make it not their right
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

I am actually happy where I live mostly... open carry is legal, nobody says anything to you. If the police see you they may ask what you carry just to be curious to what you are carrying, maybe they want to try it out or something. Usually they give you the nod and wave, maybe thank you for taking the time to stand up and protect yourself.
Delaware police and Troopers are the best!

I agree with you up to a point. Unless I’m hunting or trapping my handgun is concealed. I really don’t understand the reason to open carry in public. For me, there is no good reason. But, the constitution says we have the right to do it so anybody that wants to should be able to.
I don’t particularly want anybody knowing I’m armed. And that includes LEO. I’ve been pulled over three or four times in the last 20–30 years and was armed each time. Cop didn’t ask and I didn’t tell. In my opinion, that’s the way it should be.
I agree that people open carrying ARs or any other weapon really in Walmarts and other public places are really not doing us any favors as gun owners. But again, their right to do so.
They have the freedom and the constitutional rights to act like idiots if they want to. In Michigan you have to tell LEO you have a weapon in your possession when stoppedif you are saying that you have a cpl and a firearm not in a case or lockbox you are correct

Well then I would have hoped you had a little more respect for the constitution that you were sworn to uphold at one time. Apparently, if you disagree with others interpretation and application of it, then you have no respect for it? Also, I must have missed the "screaming in cops faces" part. I didn't see anything but a peaceful demonstration where no one was arrested or cited. Maybe you should go sell dictionaries or something? Finster... You don't know me at all and your comments are stupid. I don't see him screaming at a cop. I see him yelling past a cop. You may think my comments are stupid but then again, unlike you I live in reality. In my world, evidence rules not your pathetic "feelings"

If I'm in the right I don't care who I might make nervous. I will not surrender my liberty because others are afraid to excercise their own.
Even if your convincing those nervous people to vote for more gun laws I see your point

You will never gain any ground by trying to appease non gun owners. Am I going to carry my double barrel shot gun into a hot dog stand, NO. I am not going to bust my hind end to make sure my revolver is concealed and not printing. NO. I am just tired of non gun owners tell me what I can and can not do. Gun Ranges open in a few days in Michigan. Keep them in the black ring.

It's true that you cannot fix stupid. Well, you started the thread. All I'm doing is pointing out your flaws in thinking and debating your points. Don't blame me if you can't handle facts and counter points. Seems like you're the one being "stupid" If you don't want to debate the issue, then why post such an anti 2nd thread on this site. Maybe you have the IQ of a turnip?
