We have states where you don't need a special permit to legally carry a concealed handgun on your person (just the standard gun permit). I don't agree with that, but a baton... Even a police riot baton... Seems a wee bit excessive, in my opinion.
I have heard this before about carrying a concealed weapon(TV cop shows), does this mean if the weapon is not concealed it is okay?

I honestly don't know. I can see reasoning both for and against, but I Googled, and yes, one can carry a non-concealed weapon in some states. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_carry_...ted_States

I do not own any weapons (guns, batons, tasers, etc.). There aren't any in my house. Though we do have a couple of kid's baseball bats, they've only been used for baseball, and they're kept outside so they would prove of little help in the case of an intruder entering our home.
