What does it say about you if you need to openly carry a gun everywhere you go?
Are you the kind of person who is ready, willing and able to shoot another human being at the drop of a hat?
In a church?
In a polling place?
In a hospital?
At the grocery store?
At the lumber yard?
In your car?
What makes you think you . . . YOU . . . are likely to need to shoot someone?
Look at all the people police kill and they are supposedly trained on when to use a gun. It obviously doesn't work. In a moment of fear or bad judgement someone dies. Why? Because the person in front of them scared them, or angered them and they over reacted.
There are bad people in the world, but there are a lot more people with bad judgement. A knife, a billy club, their fists, are bad enough. They do not need a gun. And their children do not need guns lying around when the open carry person forgets to take it to the bathroom with them, or falls asleep, or just gets so used to it, they cease to be careful.
