I’m really not familiar with the author, but I’d like him to back up a few of his statements. Specifically this public turn of opinion towards open carry. I don’t see that at all. In my state at least, history repeats itself on the subject every two years. Open carry advocates find a willing sponsor in the Texas legislature. Bill never gets the votes to see the floor, bill dies, rinse and repeat again in two years.

I remember when it ‘switched’ in Florida.
Democrats discovered through intensive polling that the issue of gun control didn't work for them - worse - that it helped Republicans.
Coincidentally - (not related - I'm sure ) and shortly there after, many newspapers in the State quit running stories on the need for more gun control....
CC passed, there's weren't wild west shoot outs like liberals predicted, crime went down - not up and quietly, it became a non-issue.
