No problem. And in my previous answer, I inadvertently left out that there are a large number here who are very much in favor of OC. I was earlier referring to those who generally support the idea of it, but don't want to destroy gains already made in CC in the process of passing OC.

For my own part, I would like to see Constitutional Carry as the ultimate goal; but I think that it is a target to be arrived at incrementally to obtain the best results.

ChuckyBrown, while there are certainly some members who are against OC, I think that if you did an actual numbers assessment, you would find that they are in a distinct minority. That said, most of the rest are not so much against OC itself as they are against the tactics of some of the most fervent supporters, which threaten to do damage to gains already made in CC.....damage that some OC supporters either refuse to address, dismiss without discussion, or are willing to accept as the price of obtaining OC.

Bomb throwing and cavalier treatment of your base is no way to grow support.

Anyway, I'm not going to add any more to this thread. I don't have anything of value to contribute that I haven't contributed in 20 previous OC threads.
