What's the deal issue of seeing a plain clothed person open carrying.



If you're carrying a gun on your person as you go about your daily business I assume you are either incredibly paranoid, making a political statement, or actively want to use it.

In all three cases I don't want to be around that person. I don't want to be around anyone concealed carrying either, but I don't know about so there's nothing for me to react to.

Or maybe they're like me, and they like guns and only suffer from mild paranoia?

I'm no threat to you bro, trust me, I'm not itching for a gunfight and 99.9% of gun owners are the same.

LOL. I carry every day. I'm none of the above. Last thing I EVER want to do is use it unless it's life or death for me or my family.

Just the thought of going through the trouble of a court case and the associated costs is enough to deter me from ever pulling unless it's go time. Me or them type of situation.

What about a plain clothed officer? Are you going to feel uncomfortable around them?

What about a retired cop?

You'd never leave your house if you knew the sheer number of people who carried.

Just think about this: In Florida 1 of every 12 people has their carry license. That means every restaurant, gas station, grocery store, etc that you go into, somebody is carrying.

Oh. And that doesn't count the number of felons who are carrying for less than admirable purposes. You know, the ones who will kill you for your gold chain.
