Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

This is where I get the mixed feelings on OC. While it is within our right to carry OC in most places in Colorado and believe me I am all for preserving our rights I personally feel a little discretion goes a long way.
As I stated in a different thread on the subject the majority of people I have witnessed OC'ing are knuckleheads in the way they do it. Exaggerated body movements and ensuring that EVERYBODY sees you are carrying just makes the party carrying appear like a tool.
Parties openly carrying firearms in public that flaunt the fact and are douchebags supreme do our 2A rights no justice.
All it takes is a few soccer moms and libs whining to city council and more anti 2A ordinances will be on the books.
In Kevins case where he is out ridin the range I would have tried to educate the ignorant Massachusetts transplant. The fact that the transplants know he is LE just speaks to their ignorance.
The other case where a board member was helping some stuck pilgrims the reaction of the pilgrims was predictable and not surprising.
Our beloved state has become a liberal bastion of the transplants.
No easy answer on getting them to see the light.

See, I have a problem here.
I do not believe the fact that Kev is a Law enforcement officer has any relevance in the matter at all.
He could be a puppy poop cleaner or flip burgers at McDonald's and he has the same right to open carry and SHOULD be equally protected.
As far as the douche bags that abuse and flaunt the open carry thing, I agree that its doing us no favors, but that's a maturity issue and should be addressed case by case.

I have open carried and I don't make an issue of it... I don't honestly believe anyone has ever noticed my M9 in a Kydex paddle at 3 to 4 o'clock...
I usually open carry if I am working in the yard and just need to run to the store or HD etc.. just easier to pop in the paddle holster...
Oh no... break out the ban hammer... this was just too funny...

I cannot agree more that what one does for a living is irrelevant when it comes to ones right to carry.
What I was trying to illustrate is seeing how the Bostonian Boobs were well aware of what KevDen does for a living then the fact that the Bostonian Boobs got their undies(or socks) twisted just further exemplifies their ignorance.

usually open carrying on the trail, hiking or four wheeling. i have had a few strange looks from the obvious boulderites walking along, sometime get a weird look from a client when i pop on the holster when showing large tract of vacant land. when you are walking 80 acre tracts you might as well be in the back country.

The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.

Just remember if you touch off a round while riding that horse that you better hold on real tight. That horse is going to be heading for the south 40 at his best rate of speed unless it has been very well trained.
