I hate it when the news wants opinions on gun laws.

[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 1971010, member: 229"] Nobody said it dumbs you down to open-carry (that's the "chip on the shoulder" attitude I'm talking about). I'm not concerned about the responsible people out there. I don't "hate" anyone for choosing to open-carry, and no - I haven't picked up on any of the "hatred towards the people that will choose to open carry" so maybe I have missed something. Like I said - I'm for our rights to carry (even though I won't carry openly). I just fear stupid people who are already doing/saying stupid stuff now, but having to at least attempt to hid it. The open-carried gun will change those people's attitudes - and they get lumped in with "all gun people" and we're already looking at choosing between two easily-media-swayed anti-gun presidents and Congress isn't too many changes away from going anti-gun as well. One big media incident is worth 1000 public endorsements/campaign propaganda advertisements. [/QUOTE]
