92% in favor of open carry. Here's the comment I posted to the article... With any controversial subject, there are opposing views. What surprises me is why this is controversial. The second amendment clearly says the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. It doesn't say the right to keep and bear arms concealed shall be allowed if the individual state feels like allowing it. This is one of our most fundamental rights, and it has already been infringed. It's time to reclaim it. To those who argue that the weapon could be taken from the owner and used in a crime, then what do you tell people whose car was stolen and used in a crime? Do you tell them that they can no longer own a car, and no one else should be allowed to own a car, because it might be stolen and used in a crime? To those who feel that carrying openly will make the carrier a victim, then I say it is personal choice. Do you tell people they cannot walk in certain areas at certain times, because it is unsafe and they MIGHT become a victim? No, you leave it to personal judgment and personal choice. That's what freedom is all about. To those who advocate open carry because the carrier can then protect bystanders, I say that is not what this is about. A concealed carrier can do the same. What this is about is more toward self-defense. If a person does not carry concealed because he can't comfortable keep the weapon concealed (hot weather, choice of clothing, etc) then he is unarmed and a means of self-defense has been denied to him. Open carry provides another option. This movement is an effort to restore a fundamental constitutional right, and to restore the most fundamental of rights to state residents - the right to self-defense. If you support this effort, please sign my petition, referenced at the end of the article. |
