How about I choose my style..... for myself... for my own reasons...
For me, Open Carry vs. Concealed Carry is not about some debatable tactical advantage, or about what’s socially proper or ‘acceptable”,it isn’t about promoting a political statement or educating the masses (although the educating does sometimes happen). To me OC vs. CC is about Liberty, Freedom, My RIGHT to simply live my life the way I choose and carry how i want to carry, so long as Iam not harming anyone directly via my own actions. CC vs. OC is about what I’m gonna wear today, and what I think will either be comfortable, or look good, or maybe I just feel like carryold-gun-X, or some combination thereof that suit my needs and desires as I seefit.
I personally get tired of the tight-wads trying to limit my liberty and freedom via some proposed social dynamic that fits their internal neurosis.Here is a novel idea; let me dress and carry the way I want to, so long as my weapon is properly secured and doesn’t pose a risk of negligent discharge due to falling, and my carry style is supported by law. I understand if you don’t like some hap-hazard/loose method of carry, I got that, makes sense, it’s a safety issue, but short of that, who are you to care? So other than carrying my weapon in a manner that invites accident, I’d say live and let live, give freedom of choice, and let liberty ring. You either embrace liberty and freedom, or you don’t. Telling people they need to be like you… well… that’s a bit narcissistic I think.
