[QUOTE="Specialist3, post: 1860240"] How is it insensitive? If more people open carried, more people would be use to seeing a citizen with a firearm thus making less people scared. It would show people actually carry firearms responsibly within their presence and that every gun does not mean something bad is about to happen. But, since more people are eager to hide their protection the general public gets a sense that there are no guns in the area unless it's the gun that just shot someone. To the general public, the only gun they will experience is when something bad happens (Auroa) and is grossly exploited over the News or from Hollywood, hiding the responsible carriers in the dark because we're afraid of the attention and what may happen. If we're not going to show the public good citizens carry, who will? If more people saw more guns doing nothing but resting in holsters, maybe the Guns kill people mentality would start to cease. Imagine how freaked out people would be if LEOs just started carrying firearms. ""Now J walkers are gonna be shot." "Am I gonna get points on my license or a bullet in the head?!" You get the point. OC is only abnormal because we, who have the choice, make it abnormal. [/QUOTE]
