[QUOTE="abajaj11, post: 1447660, member: 3553"] That would make sense if OK was the first state proposing open carry and it was something radically new. We should always remember that around 43 states have open carry already. And they all have police forces, and open carry does not seem to be hurting anyone in these 43 states. Open carry is not about whether you wish to open carry or not, rather it is about creating a a mindset amongst the population that seems to be getting lost: that guns are just a tool in the hands of responsible citizenry, and not some illicit item/guilty self-indulgence that requires a privilege to use. Remember that in ancient civilizations one of the characteristics of a slave was that they were not allowed to own weapons. Also, note that we entrust common citizens with a deadly weapon everyday: cars and trucks! These can create more mayhem than handguns, and yet we don't see people mowing others down, do we? [/QUOTE]
