[QUOTE="Frederick, post: 2931739, member: 17825"] I'm curious about the last part of your statement, why should open carry be permitted if concealed carry is? I think concealed carry offers the advantage for the business of being out of sight. allowing them to restrict open carry while requiring concealed carry would give them some leeway to prevent the open display of weapons in their business. That makes sense to me if you're a business that doesn't want to scare customers and balances it with the right of self defense. I do think a business owners property rights are important, but i also believe in the importance of not depriving a citizen of his right to self-defense when patronizing a business. I shouldn't have to choose between my right to self-defense and buying gas, water or getting lunch. it's fine to support business property rights when there are **** tons of alternatives around, but if you live in a small town, it's not practical.
