The whole argument can be put in this nutshell.
Unless you are unwilling to convert your beliefs, due to those around you laying down. Im not too much concerned with what other people think of me, and to be honest, the few times I ever open carried in a public setting, I got absolutely no response.
Maybe its because I was properly dressed, calm normal acting person. I wasn't trying to make eye contact with everyone, or high stepping around putting hand on my hips like "look at my gun".. Maybe you are right, maybe perception is everthing.

What so many, including myself, struggle with is, at what point do we stand up for our rights against the unwarranted discrimination as listed above? How much farther do we allow the baseline for normal to be pushed in the wrong direction so we don't infringe on someone's perception and fear?
When other legally performed actions and habits by the general public may be considered offensive, disgraceful, or fearful, the current trend is to educate, preach tolerance, or belittle those that find the actions offensive, disgraceful, and fearful. All the while those participating in these issues or actions make every effort to more blatantly increase the frequency and volume of said actions.
And guess what? Those tactics are working for them.
