A Gentleman's Guide to Open Carry

[ICantSpellDawg]

I understand the problem with watching someone walk into a Starbucks with a loaded rifle with their hand on the grip and finger on the trigger in low-ready-to-fire.

The question is - why are you afraid of law abiding people who have undergone a mental evaluation, had an in-person interview with law enforcement, and secured a 5 year renewable permit carrying a handgun? There is statistically very little danger to this in a nation where most people can own guns and illegally carry them as the will sees fit. Whether the law abiding carry those handguns concealed or open on their hip, does this have a real affect on you, or merely one of perception? Are you in any more danger?

You must recognize that there is a difference between a drug-adled criming carrying a firearm and someone who is licensed to do so. Even in Florida, you need to pass a safety course and have a renewable background check.

What is your problem with this?
