[QUOTE="Jefpainthorse, post: 1794453, member: 11766"] lets see...3% of your neighbors have the permit to do this... 7/8's of Oklahoma is dead quiet during the day. If we assume that 1% of the 3% actually open carry... and SOMEONE actually sees a gun and calls it in.... I will assume you have no plausible experience in OC... The odds of seeing somebody walking with a gun is pretty low in places where it's allowed. In those placed were it does go noticed the officer rides by, makes contact, asks what's going on, reads the situation and goes to fight real crime. I know of one case in Arizona where a New York City type freaked, called a cop on a OC person and ended up in jail for causing a scene. Police will not refuse to provide service... but I can assure you that dispatchers will start asking "is it in a holster, and what's he doing right now?" When the caller says, "he's trying to decide "Tide" or "Bargain Brand"... oh God NO- he's picking up some Pepsi!", expect that call to go low priority. [/QUOTE]
