JUST POSTED BY A GUN SHOP OWNER ON FACEBOOK

Open Carry is carrying a firearm unconcealed in Ohio. OC does not require a concealed handgun license, but the practice requires intimate knowledge of the law since there are places and situations where OC is prohibited but carrying concealed would be permitted. OC is also likely to attract attention. This forum is for discussion of OC, not for debating the pro's and con's or coordinating any type of protest events.

I'm betting he has his page set up so he has to "approve" posts for them to appear.

Oh, so now you're inside my head? ROFL!

No, LOL, it means nothing of the sort, and I noticed you didn't respond to my on-point queries either.

I think I've made my points, as I'm sure you feel you have, and I intend to put this subject out to pasture. It's no news to any open carrier that some prosecutors will use any tool at their disposal to enforce their biases, rather than the law - it's all about control.

Good day.
Yes, I do believe in open carry. An openly armed man is clear in his intentions. Concealed carriers are sneaks and skulkers and elitist, boot licking, political contribution making, running dog lackies of The Man. <wink> (thx grumpycoconut - OpenCarry.org)

I carry both ways , concealed and open and found it to be a great way to start a conversation. I have been walking at night in our neighborhood and been visiting with neighbors and suddenly they notice I have a firearm on my hip. This is a perfect opportunity to explain why I carry and why they might look into owning a firearm. Be humble and polite and let them start the conversation!
