Good 3 part series on open carry

Part 2 link - http://www.warriortalknews.com/2011/10/the-dos-and-donts-of-open-carry-part-ii.html

Part 3 - still working on that, http://www.warriortalknews.com/2011/10/the-dos-and-donts-of-open-carry-part-iii.html perhaps? That only brings up a blank page for me. Are you sure it's three parts?

A note on the usual course of OC threads - let's keep this on topic and High Road, please. If the usual grade school stuff starts on this one, your moderator is going to react poorly.

I've just got a bit more studying to finish and then I'll watch the series. I've got my history final exam tomorrow in the morning. I should be back to relax after 3 or so more hours. Then I'll give my thoughts on it. Thanks for posting, Lee.

No fair, they waited till December for Part III!

Thanks, Doc - I only tried through November.

I have no fear of OC if the Law changes in TX.

Sorry, Lee, I had to squint and hold my mouth right

If OC ever gets passed here in Texas, I will OC from time to time because I can and to be an ambassador, but on a selfish note, I'm anti-social, my clothes rarely fit and I have long hair, so I'd rather CC to avoid the human interaction I'd sometimes get. I can be more alone CCing, and I want to present gun owners in the best possible light. That said, I'm all for dudes with long hair, earrings and tattoos CCing to show responsible gun owners come from all walks of life, and don't judge a book by it's cover.

When I was a preacher, we had some full-on biker guys come by for church, and the greeters turned them away! Boy, we were mad. I think the more the public sees responsible gun owners the better, the fight is not for the pro people or the antis, it's for the masses who have no opinion on guns and who are bombarded with the media's constant programming.

But I prefer CC because I find it a bit more tactically sound, and because I want to be left alone.

I won't even OC a folder with a pocket clip. I'm pretty far to the side of the bell curve that values both surprise and discretion. That said, if someone else wants to, it's their life; just because I think it's a really bad idea doesn't mean we can't live and let live. I've typically started up a conversation whenever I've come across the rare OC'er, and we've always gotten along well enough, Imagine that.

Pretty good series. It makes you think about a few things.
I liked the "three stupid rule."
I do open carry, but just around the farm.
