I'm heading to another state on vacation. Since Indiana has reciprocity, I was considering taking my firearm along. But, it is a concealed carry only state.
.
Now I don't always open carry, but am used to living in a state where it is no big deal, one way or the other. And therefore, feel a little put upon to have to keep it in my pants, so to speak.
.
Which brings my to my question / observation.
.
It would seem to me that insisting that gun owners conceal carry only to be a first step in more aggressive gun control.
.
So, even if you never open carry, wouldn't you feel slightly oppressed if Indiana went the way of concealed carry only?
And therefore, shouldn't we all be open carry advocates? And maybe, just maybe, exercise our right to open carry more often?
.
Just some random pre-vacation, mowing the grass while OC with my awesome 642.
