Honestly, I fully support your right to open carry but for me I'd rather have the element of surprise on my side.
Uh oh .........

Heh, you guys are silly. Should I have read all 70 pages before posting? Whatever's clever Trevor. I don't care where you carry your gun. Do your thing.
Eastindy gunner I suggest you call President Obama and make all those in the military hide their weapons and unis so they can have the element of surprise!
Oh... Oh, my sides... So many jokes. Look fellas/(ladies?) I have read the "open carry argument" a few times and I agree with all of it to a degree. I'm going to guess that the majority of you had nice, relatively peaceful upbringings in nice, relatively peaceful communities and that's super great. No shame in that. I envy you. I don't mean this as a dig but if my previous sentence describes you then you probably have little to no street experience. Again, that's cool. I don't want to romanticize street culture or violence or any of the inherent qualities that come with growing up in an urban environment with very little supervision. I grew up in Indianapolis. I went to public school. I've lived and worked in the ****tiest parts of the city and experienced violent crime first hand. I would not want to tangle with some of the guys I grew up around. I have lived by the "grey man" code before I even knew what a grey man was. I can tell you that in an environment where thugs find courage and strength in numbers the element of surprise that you all are trying to clown me for touting has saved my skin MANY times. Without divulging too much information, I will say that I have "surprised" the sh\t out of thug types that at first thought, because I was smart enough and comfortable enough, that I was terrified and therefore compliant enough for them to let their guard down just enough for me to seize the first opportunity to act quickly and violently enough to gain the upper hand in bad situations. I will admit I have been very lucky but I have also been comfortable enough with my enemy to manage interactions with them. I know a little something about the demographic we all hope we don't have to engage. I am no "mall ninja" or "armchair tacticool dude". I get it, there are LOTS of fools on these boards that have all the hypothetical bases covered. I am not one of those persons. Out of respect for these boards and this thread, if you would like to clown me further or ask me questions please message me. Apologies to the mods and folks annoyed by this break in your regularly scheduled programming. As far as the dude I originally commented on seeing ocing, he looked totally fat and his weapon looked insecure enough for me to grab and do any number of things with. I'm sorry if I have offended your open carry sensibility enough for you to unleash your best snark upon but... Well...I don't care, best of luck to you when you find yourself in a bad way. Cheers
The enter key is your friend. Try it once in a while.
Or at least give me some credit for ranting on for so long with only my thumbs!
You did all that on an iPhone ? Hell, I'll rep you just for that.
Touche, hey I admitted I'm public school educated, cut me some slack. Plus it's hard to gauge paragraph length when typing on an iPhone.
God bless America! Funny you take no issue with any of the actual content of my absurd, run on paragraph and instead choose to criticize my composition. Come on dog, give me something to work with here.
