Gonna be a mess - got an excuse to agitate

Open carrying what exactly, a rifle? You'll likely get tossed in the slammer for that. You are NOT a member of the protected class, so the mayor will tell the police to nail your hide to a barn door.

Why open carry a handgun when you can conceal it legally. Why would anyone want to open carry a handgun, never let the enemy know what you have, you want to blend in and avoid problems, open carry negates that advantage and open carry negates the advantage of surprise.

I agree completely, my 'maybe too subtle' point was that there's no right answer, there's risks and complications all around.

You and I and people like us are in a very grey area right now, very fluid, and the governments we thought would uphold the rule of law don't anymore.

Government and the media has utterly failed us and created an environment hostile to truth and law and order.

We have experienced a tremendous a blow to our senses.

We are on our own and no one is coming to rescue us and if we rescue ourselves we will be prosecuted or killed for it.

While we stare at the broken vase on the floor, and blame the floor's hardness for the breakage, a cat named Enlightenment licks its paws from atop the window sill.

He pauses, looks you directly in the eye, and purrs with a hint of, "Who, me?"

Exactly, my own inactivity helped create this mess.

I want to be left alone and in return I'll leave others alone.

Others won't leave me alone now, is there time to turn the tide?

Unfortunately I don't think so. We have been complacent and missed that opportunity.

Here in CO, yes. The left coasts, yes. There is still flyover country and some spaces south and north of here.
