It boils down to that. Funsway and his imagined rights not withstanding.

Why would a terrorist go into a place where 10% of the customers were carrying either openly or concealed????? At the Pulse here in Orlando it would have been 30 to 1 if only 10% were carrying ... That means the terrorist would have been killed in the first minute ...THIRTY TO ONE.... In Texas a single man with a side arm took out two terrorist before they killed ANYONE!!!!! I think open carry and concealed carry are both covered in the constitution ....It's our right!

I have no idea what exactly is or is not covered.
But certainly if a guy had information about who had guns and who didn't it is a tactical advantage a 5 year old could recognize. Conversely not having that information switches that advantage some.

I think it's safe to say having information is usually an advantage over not having information.
It's not at all clear to me that having a lot of guns in a public place is safer for most people, on balance, than not having them. But it's VERY obvious to me that in the event of a mass shooting or terrorist attack, if there ARE good guys with guns present, concealed carry is much better for them and the innocent bystanders than open carry.

What if the Hokey Pokey really IS what it's all about?
My neighbor rang my doorbell at 2:30 a.m. this morning, can you believe that, 2:30 a.m.!? Lucky for him I was still up playing my drums. |

It is safe to say that which raises one man above another is knowledge. It is not safe to say that a gun is an equalizer when concealing a gun gives some more knowledge than others.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

I recently obtained a very hard to obtain carry permit in Maryland, I have carried for 60 plus days everyday 8-10 hours a day and so far it has not jumped out of its holster and shot anyone, this has been from small towns to Baltimore MD,
I am now much more aware of my surrounding and even friendlier on the road to avoid confrontation, I wish we could open carry but will do so in my neighboring states when I visit as it is legal in all 4 states that touch Maryland. I hope I never need it but have no hesitation to use it if needed. NUMS |

I have yet to open carry. To this point, I haven't felt any sort of need to.
If a situation comes about where I feel I should open carry, I would certainly consider it, but I have never felt any sort of desire to open carry just because I can.
My ex-cat was named "Muffin". "Vomit" would be a better name for her. AKA "The Evil Ball of Fur".
