    They used to show the nature programs a lot, when America was righteous.

    And the lions would take down a wildabeest, the wolves take down deer or baby elks. Mom and the girls would say that's so mean, and vicious.

    It showed that the predators give little regard to what the prey thinks.

    Open carry in no way seeks out escalation, what kind of weird 1840s mentality do you have thinking people are walking around looking for shootouts?

    That's like saying burglars are targeting houses with dogs.

    Who is looking FOR escalation more? The person who carries a weapon openly or the person who carries NOTHING? if the open carry ISNT on a more heightened lookout, they're triply stupid because they are openly advertising that they can deal with it.

    It is a fact that people that THINK there is a risk of X are more on the lookout for X and see it EVEN IF IT WASNT THERE.

    So youre telling me that an open carry twit is NOT actually looking to use his weapon? That they are thoughtful enough to always seek de-escalation despite openly signaling to the world that they are ready for a fight?

    Thats a nice fantasy world you live in.
    I can only surmise that those who are so virulently against what I'm saying are feeling personally attacked because it describes THEM. Well, so be it. The practice of open carry is an indicator of a closed minded individual concerened only with themself and their hero complex. You're worse than vegans, at least THEY usually wait for someone to talk to them before shoving it in your face. Open carry does the same simply walking out in public.

    Haha, I'm worse than vegans? Thanks for adding that joke in the middle of your unhinged tirade.

    Half of your ramblings are centered on some preconceived notion of mind reading and half ####ed armchair psychology. The other half is undercutting your entire argument by admitting the statistically slim chance of being involved in a shootout.

    If guns make you uncomfortable that's your problem. You see them and get the sweats that's on you.

    You can continue living in your The Quick and the Dead fantasyland nitpicking ccw vs open carry but its obvious you're all emotions about it or else you would have addressed the previous comments points in favor of open carry.

    What kind of mindless preemptive victim blaming psychosis are you in the throes of?

    "Look at this twit wearing revealing clothes, the little jezebul was asking for it, ya see, officer"

    Cut back on the diesel fumes there gas cap.

    I’m more afraid of an open carry/ccw blowhard with a hero complex than I am being a victim of a crime to be honest.

    Haha, this drivel, you're literally saying you are more afraid of the potential of a crime rather than an actual crime committed against you...

    In what world is the potential of being shot worse than being shot? Who chooses that option? Have you ever taken a math class? Did you miss the day they explained logic? You know that boring day with completely useless things like if A equals B and B equals C then A equals C...

    not even touching on the crime you are committing against statistics, this argument is so emotionally attached logic just gets thrown out the window
