Personally - I see no merit in open carry.
I tend to think people are more polite when they DON' T know who is packing.
Edit to add
What do you base the statement - that those who carry are a greater risk? Are you including or excluding those who carry illegally?
Either/or. I base it on the assumption that I’m somewhat less likely to be shot by a person who doesn’t have a gun than by one who does.
