I think most people chose to CC cause they realized OC in public just looks retarded. Kinda like saggy pants, backwards hats and sunglasses on your forehead. That's what happened.
Somehow I doubt the above post.

Wait... nothing in the news, no daily blood in the street, haven't seen anyone OC in a couple of months. What gives???
Maybe it IS true that sitting through a class, paying money and an OSBI background check tends to select for those that tend to make reasonable choices, carry safely and choose CC over OC most, if not all of the time?
(Not a dig on OC, just an observation that OC is rare at best, compared to the number of licenses currently held)
Yawn....
I think he was saying, with a semi-poor choice of phrasing, that he suspects that a lot of people don't OC because they think wearing a gun on your hip w/o a real need looks dumb, or is unnecessary. I won't say I think it looks dumb, but I don't plan on doing it because of the extra attention it will/might draw and I don't feel the need. I'm not a style queen and I'll wear some fugly stuff if the trade of style for function/practicality is worth it. I don't think it's necessary for most of us. OC is a must for most cops because it's not practical to CC. The gun is part of the uniform, basically. For Joe Schmoe, it's more practical in many cases to tuck a smaller gun in his pants and press on. Cops, due to their jobs, have a greater need for fast access to a gun. Joe probably works in an office, doesn't knock on tinted windows on the side of the highway and will probably never have a need for the fastest access.His assertion would make all police retarded. Which I don't think is true.
