I truly believe that average Americans support the right to carry arms. However, I wonder if those of us who carry could be our own worst enemy if we are not careful. Recently I was in a Five Guys Burger restaurant and noticed a guy openly carrying what appeared to be a Ruger Vaquero or something similar. Several folks in the restaurant were looking at the guy and one family even moved across the room when the lady noticed the gun.
Now, in the state I live in open carry is legal with a permit, but I wonder is it always a good idea? Even folks who support the Second Amendment might think differently if they start to notice a lot of openly armed people.
So, do you think it is better to conceal your weapon simply to try and maintain goodwill even if the law allows open carry?
