This is how I understand it went:
Some asshole* in the state legislature proposed raising the minimum age for getting a concealed carry permit to age 25. Some other assholes said: "Oh, yeah? We see your age change and raise you- we'll lower it to 19 and make open carry legal everywhere that concealed carry is legal. Whaddya think of that?"
And now it's the law.
I sort of am in favor of open carry laws, if only to stop the hoplophobic po-po from arresting people for "brandishing" because the cop gets a glimpse of a concealed handgun. But when assholes like these clowns or these two idiots come into play, then I am open to changing my mind about the wisdom of permitting open carry.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
as a Misery and St Louis county resident I am sorta for this-but I don't open carry. Don't like to advertise. That said should my jacket be blown open on a windy day, I don't have to worry as much.
ReplyDeleteSo, zooming in on the Smashburger picture, that sure looks like the safety is off. Am I seeing that right? I know they are idiots, but that's surely a whole new level.
ReplyDeleteOy...you're right. The safety IS off in that picture. Though the shotgun with the display sticker still on the stock is a lesser level of fail, but still.
ReplyDeletemakes concealed carry less fussy with printing and accidental shows.
ReplyDeleteAs to advertising you have, not a good strategic plan.
Eck!
CP88, that one idiot might have had the chamber empty.
ReplyDeleteComrade, I certainly hope so...but no bets either way. It's just stupid because you ALWAYS assume a gun is loaded (as you well know). Of course, they've already abandoned their guns to whoever grabs them first...
ReplyDeleteUsed to work on an AFB where the cafeteria had a simple rack for security guards to lean their weapons on while they ate. One day somebody bumped it and half a dozen loaded M-16s clattered to the floor...
