[QUOTE="Jam Master Jay, post: 2007048, member: 10421"] The notion that exposing a previously concealed weapon constitutes deadly force is silly. So you're saying that if I'm in Walmart and my gun is concealed under my coat but I decide to take off my coat to be more comfortable, I'm all of a sudden threatening everyone with deadly force because I'm transitioning to open carry? Here's a better scenario: What if you are already open carrying and the guy in the truck simply hadn't noticed that you were and decides to turn around when he sees your gun? There's not much difference. Either you think "transitioning to open carry" is legal and reasonable or you think it's a threatening gesture, in which case I'm guilty of threatening my family every time I come home and expose my previously concealed weapon. Exposing a gun is legal now. Now if you put your hand on your gun like you're attempting to draw it? That's a different story. Besides, the guy in the first scenario lost his self defense excuse when he got out of his truck to make a confrontation. [/QUOTE]
