I am well aware this has been discussed several times, both pro and con.
The incident in Orlando, however, punches up the reason why I do not open carry.
The very first person shot by the Muslim terrorist at the night club was the ARMED GUARD.
It is my strong opinion that in most cases, when a criminal is armed and, intent on his mission, if he sees an armed person who might thwart his mission, he'll shoot that person first.
In a very bad situation, I want that small option of SURPRISE, on my side. I do not want the criminal to know I am armed and shoot me first.
Therefore I do not open carry. Works for me. I know others differ and that is their opinion.
