The amount of folks scared by open carry on a gun site is pretty telling of the world we live in. Non rural folks aren’t used to seeing guns anymore. I’ve had family from Dallas area ask me several times if I had permits to carry rifles in my pickup. These are gun people mind you. Lady at the car seat place almost freaked on me when she saw my sky rack while showing me how to properly install a car seat when my first son got too big for the carrier. It’s a serious culture issue.
I don’t like the sloppy open carry, but love a nice leather holster on a well dressed person. It needs to be normalized before it’s too late.
I did see a guy in chick filet a while back wearing a NRA shirt with a compact pistol just stuck in his back pocket. He fit the belly brigade pretty good. I was in line in front of him and my oldest son was pointing at his gun. I started to just grab it and tap him on the shoulder. But I didn’t want to start anything. Lot of good that does, for the 2A or even protecting yourself.
