And yet no such event has occurred, no wild shoot outs, no blood bath on the highway or restaurant, no wild west days anywhere that open carry is legal.

Seems to me America was doin just fine when there were wild west shootouts

 

[Mr. H.]

What I like best about Illinois' new concealed-carry law is that I have to wear all my shirts un-tucked and it hides my big grandpa belly.

I even carried into a pizza joint this evening, and no one said a word.

'Zup wit dat?

They didn't want to look at your fat ugly azz...

The law should mandate that all ugly plastic guns such as Glocks be carried concealed.

Really? You mean being able to carry a gun means we will be dueling all the time? That's the stupidest reasoning I've heard today. Last time I checked, Open carry doesn't mean dueling is legal.

There used to be duels all the time! (Alexander Hamilton)

I can think of at least 15 people I wouldn't mind dueling

I suspect some pro-gun folks long for "wild west shoot outs".

I'm an elitist east coast liberal...

There weren't all that many shoot outs in the old west. Most towns had gun restrictions. When you came into town, you had to check in your guns at the sheriff's office. If you did not, they would arrest you.

 

[Two Thumbs]

shootouts are more myth than fact

and there was none of this show down at high noon stuff, that's all hollywood

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

What's the big deal? They have them all over Chicago already.

 

[ScienceRocks]

If people are stupid enough to do this. Why stop them?

 

[The Rabbi]

Tennessee has had open carry for over 20 years. No shoot outs.

Every time people want to liberalize gun laws the antis claim there will be shoot outs and blood in the street etc. It never happens. Never. Because people who carry a gun are generally responsible people. Responsible people act responsibly. The problem is thugs. And thugs dont respect the law anyway.

None yet. The idea is to avoid them before they happen. Why carry a gun if you have never been attacked?

No just the anti gun folks.

Um, the idea is to avoid it before it happens.
Do you carry a spare tire in your car? Why carry one if you've never had a flat?
