So then it becomes your problem.
Congratulations on giving up your rights to make other people happy. I wonder what other rights you give up. Did you ever think the sheepdogs raise peoples awareness on gun rights? Of course not, not in that little bubble you are living in.

Thats nice, so now youre telling others how they should and should not carry their own gun even though that is their right. Very nice.

What a joke.

The police, custom, INS they all open carry, & it scare me, but they don't conceal carry even if it scare me, so why give them more rights than our citizens, If you want to open carry, let it be your choice. I don't open carry, but that is my choice, if you want to open carry, more power to you

Exactly, its everyones own personal decision how they want to carry. To say "You should not open carry at the mall" is ridiculous.

With rights come responsibilities.

Some people focus only on the first part and willfully ignore the 2nd.

It's called "willful ignorance." Not good.

Not only do they open carry, they conceal carry...they have authority/power/responsibility that you and I do not have...they have weeks to months of training and schools that you and I do not have, they shoot more ammo in the academy than most people do in 5 years if not more...

They have laws to protect them when in the line of the job...the job requires them to be armed...requires them to wear a badge that some open carry nutz covet as they are not smart enough or are not physically able to earn...so they walk around with a pistol stuffed in a saggy holster with handcuffs and mace cuz they have a "right" to do so....

Your post is like saying catfish and sea bass are the same as they both live in water...

Nope, it's downright stupid to open carry some places...but those who want to **** off others, those who want to upset and scare others cuz they have a "right" to do so insist on being tools and end up doing more harm than good....but since they have small penises and have to pretend to be important...they swagger around ignorant of anybody or anything but themselves...

So its irresponsible to open carry if youre not a cop? That is ignorant and ludicrous.

Why do people think of police officers as gun experts? Sure they know their firearm, but I guarantee you I know my carry weapon as well as any cop does. Im educated enough on the subject to be able to make my own decisions on how to carry it. And the "pistol stuffed in a saggy holster" stereotype much? I wouldnt think of carrying that way.

But then again, Im not a superhuman cop.

Stupid beyond words.....I mean seriously....stupid....

It's called living in society not giving up rights...all cuz some people have to feel and pretend they are important by open carrying a pistol when it's not the time or place to open carry....

Feel important by open carrying a pistol? Really? That is by far the most ignorant thing I have ever read on the internet, and thats saying alot.

Stupid beyond words doesnt even begin to describe that.

I suppose next youre going to tell me carrying a gun makes me feel like a big man???

Rosie Odonnell must love you.

Why don't you go back and read & try to understand what you are reading....

Nobody said that except you...

Police are not all "experts" and many of em don't know the manual of arms for a pistol they are not trained/qualified on/with.

How many retention classes have you taken. how many guys have you had who are trained in how to remove a handgun from somebody come along and take your weapon...how did you get your education...by reading books and watching videos???

Ever have somebody try to take your pistol, somebody teaching a class say he can take your gun before you know it and shoot you with it..

Well I have...time and time again...and lost...ever look down the barrel of your pistol as somebody else pulled the trigger...

I've had somebody try to take my pistol in real life...and it was not fun...and they lost and went to jail...with my handcuffs on them...only reason I won was the classes I've had...

It's easy to spout shot when you have never had to face it in real life...easy to sit at home on the computer and blow smoke...when you really don't know what you are talking about...

You know nothing of my firearms experience or training so dont speak on it.

And I have been robbed at gunpoint, if I want to open carry because I believe it deters somebody from trying that again then is that not my right????


According to anti gunners (in disguise) like yourself, its not my right. I dont care if you feel that open carrying is stupid. But do NOT tell me or anybody else that I shouldnt be allowed to do it. That is absolutely insane.
