If someone wants to file false charges against someone who is openly carrying, claiming you drew and pointed a weapon at them, what would happen?
This is the only legitimate argument against open carry that I have come across. I know someone that had false assault with a deadly weapon charge filed against him, and if he had not plead guilty and taken the lesser probation plea bargain, he could have faced a number of years in prison if it went to a trial and he was found guilty.
