The MAN is a woman and you are a rude sucker, sir. All open carry does us set you up as a sweet target. Congrats.
Open carrying was fantastic in the wild west, but why tempt fate?
How Woke of you. Instead of encouraging others to OC, you mock them, you challenge their reasoning ability. When you side with the anti-2A crowd, even on a narrowly focused issue, yet deny you side with them -- that makes you a WCZ.
OC may not be for everyone, every time, based on the specifics of the circumstances, physical ability, or sometimes environmental conditions. BUT even if we personally are not in the habit of open carry, we MUST vigorously defend every lawful citizen’s right to do it, because “Woke Capitalism” eventually gets written into law when anti-Constitutional legislators come into power.
Don't be a WOKE CAPITALISM ZOMBIE
One whose normally innate instinct for protecting Liberty is precluded, negated, or superseded by an irrational desire to get along with others.
I think you borrowed that line from Chuck Schumer, it sounds familiar. Makes it sound like you're not against the Institution of guns (i.e. for hunting); you're just for the right to view the Constitution as a "living document".
Ni, I borrowed it from no one. My opinion. Just as your post is your opinion.
I am totally fine with guns. If I had the $$ for a gun and classes, I would go for it. I just would not open carry.

Another ambiguous throwaway quote. Substitute 'time for a' instead of $$ for a' and it could be one of those sneaky hidden-agenda quotes from Chuck.
Sounds like you don't own a gun(s). Which puts you in an awkward philosophical position: you argue that you feel (without practical expertise, since your experience with guns is limited) you could be comfortable with CC but not OC, but then you apply your feelings to an entire class of citizenry, which, if enforced, would be unconstitutional.
Lesson here, forget your feelings, go with praise for the wisdom of our founding documents to protect ALL of EVERY INDIVIDUAL's rights, even if you don't care to participate in the activities protected by those rights.
Gun ownership on my part is none of your freakin’ business. Go pick on a sjw. I am not one.
