Re: Open-Carry: Pro/Con - Split from "Still No Open Carry Bill

Charles, I really want to say how much I appreciate the way you explain things.

Question in regard to your last statement... So a red ghostbuster sign would stop the aforementioned security guard... would it also stop an on-duty but on meal break LEO? Merely curious.

Re: Open-Carry: Pro/Con - Split from "Still No Open Carry Bill

What are the states that have both open carry and concealed carry? Has this been a problem in those places? I know that Texas is different, but I'd be interested to know.

Re: Still No Open-Carry Bill

IMO... it's ENTIRELY possible that open carry would lead to LESS 30.06 postings. Follow the logic... There isn't any legal sign requirement for a "no shirt, no shoes, no service" sign. They can be ANYTHING.

So a business that doesn't want open carry would likely go the easy route... either buy a simple ghostbuster sign and figure they're covered, or put up an 8 1/2 x 11 sign on their door and figure they're covered, rather than go to the trouble to find out what is required to keep the CHL's out.

Just a thought.

Re: Still No Open-Carry Bill

I don't have any problem with unlicensed carry to any great degree... but I suppose I'd prefer licensed carry and no change to concealed carry. But wow, I just spent a bunch of time reading over there and MY knee got sore from watching the knee-jerking reactions to stuff.
