[QUOTE="okiebryan, post: 1961427, member: 24457"] I'm not an armchair tactician. The choice to OC will be legal next Thursday, and the deterrent value makes sense to me. Not only that, I've seen it first hand. I am preparing for the most likely scenario, which is some punk trying to jack my sh!+, rather than a supporting actor role in a Die Hard movie. Feel free not to OC, nobody is trying to force you to come out of the closet, so to speak. Look again. There was a link to the site where the 5 stages are discussed at length. Not sure, but most likely because his crystal ball was on the fritz. The incident you mentioned happened on Nov 25, 2011. The essay was written sometime before Mar 17, 2009, when it was posted on the website where I found it. Even so, you are not looking at the facts surrounding that situation. He was not shot for open carrying, he was shot because he chased the BG AFTER his gun was stolen. [URL="http://www2.timesdispatch.com/news/news/2011/dec/03/4/teen-homicide-suspects-had-felony-convictions-ar-1510369/"]Article[/URL] He made a very bad choice to pursue the BG, and it cost him his life. So here's one gun grab. If you look hard, you will find another. There exists a grand total of two. I've found 2 dozen instances where CCers lost their gun in a robbery. I support your right to carry how you wish, within the limits of the law, and as someone who appreciates liberty, I'd expect no less from you. [/QUOTE]
