Today at the Bloomington Walmart, in the cereal isle, I here someone behind me say" do you mind if I ask you a question?" My immediate thought was oh boy, here we go. This is, after all, Bloomington, the Prius driving, Kumbaya singing, drum circle capital of the Midwest. The next thing I hear is "do you mind if I ask how long it took to get your carry license? This led to a very pleasant five minute or so conversation with a fellow gun owner about Indiana's LTCH process, reciprocity, the demise of shooting ranges in Bloomington, and, of course, INGO. Amazingly, no one was disarmed by a five year old girl, no SWAT teams were called out, no blood ran in the isles, and no soccer moms ran away screaming in terror. It was just the way every OC encounter should be.
