I guess I should clarify my position. I am against the Open carry for the same reason many brought up. I feel that it will result in many more 30.06 signs being posted. In large cities/urban areas, there are going to be many folks not comfortable with open carry and they will for sure out number us who have CHL's.

A shop owner will not risk alienating his non gun carrying customers for the sake of 1 or 2 carrrying ones.

I will not shop at a place that's posted. I don't want to have to change my spending habits on places that I enjoy going because someone chose to open carry at that place causing customers to "fear" the gun toting person and management posting the place.

Plus, I don't know how I feel about a person carrying a handgun into public places who has not been through the same requirments as a CHL has. That being said, If open carry were to pass, I want it to be only for CHL holders to have that option, not joe schmo who can't get a CHL.

I also belive that we pay way to much for a license and it needs to be no more then $50 for new and renewed.

My thoughts, My opinion, open to debate

I am against open carry. I am for making sure that any accidental display of a otherwise properly concealed firearm absoulty is no offense of any kind.
