Hearts and minds. Cuz that worked so well in Vietnam. Sorry, but I don't give a wet, dribbly shyte if others don't like me exercising my rights. Just like they shouldn't give a shyte if they exercise their rights, and offend me.
That's why they are called 'rights'. If only non-controversial rights were expressed, we wouldn't need to codify them now would we?
Leave people alone. For LEO this goes double. Leave law-abiding people alone. Go stand around the sheeple that called you, and leave us alone. Very simple. You want to be afraid, then be afraid, but if I have a rifle, it's because I want a rifle! End of story, there's no 'why' about it. If you think I owe you some kind of justification to exercise my right to open carry, then the rights themselves are worthless.
I am a huge 2A advocate, and believe in exercising our rights to the fullest. However, the media, government and education have convinced a large segment of the population that any gun is evil, scary, dangerous and commits violence all on its own.
If there are enough complaints from these SHEEPLE to the authorities, politicians will be forced to act, and we may see a rollback of open carry rights which is Un-Constitutional but that never stopped the politicians before. So while I may agree that we have a right to walk around in heavily populated areas like airports with an AR or AK slung on our shoulder, while legal, it may not be the prudent thing to do. That being said, I am not going to force my view on others. Feel free to do that as much as you want. I will keep mine concealed.
