Maybe I am in the minority of this but it seems like it would be bad for business. As a pro 2A person, I wouldn't go to an open carry rally, because, I'm always very aware when around armed strangers...and frankly all that hyper awareness gets tiring.

So what you're saying is that behavior is secondary to appearance, and that you would support the irrational fears of customers who get scared when they see a gun.

O.K..

How about hoodies? Are you going to target citizens wearing hoodies as well? You know a lot of folks think anyone wearing a hoodie is a thug, and they've probably got a hidden illegal weapon on them anyway, right?

What about the MMA crowd? That shaved headed dude wearing the "affliction" T-shirt is "scary" to a lot of people too.


IMO, behavior is the deciding factor, not appearance. Appearances are easily faked. Behavior, not so much.

But I guess because we're talking about "guns", it's "different" right? It's a "special" case right?
