If you are carrying, is it an offense if you are carrying in such a way that your firearm is easily visible?
Reason I ask is because of that care a few months back where that guy mouthed off to police as he was riding by on his bike, telling them to make sure they read the guy his rights. The cop saw his handgun grips sticking out of his backpack and he was charged for open carry.

Some states have open carry, some have concealed carry. Here in TX it’s concealed carry. I don’t know the reasons for the dichotomy. I suppose concealed carry tends to avoid whipping up people’s passions, but open carry lets everybody know where they stand.
