Michigan Bans Open Carry of Firearms at Polling Places
October 16, 2020 at 5:19 pm
I never have seen any good reason for open carry - except for hunting. In that situation you need to be able to access your weapon as quietly as possible - frequently in a hurry.
If you are carrying a gun for self protection - carrying it concealed makes more sense tactically. Why give an opponent a heads-up by carrying openly? They now know what you have - and where you have it.
Walking around with a gun on your hip is a bit like walking around with your dick sticking out... Now nobody is going to be shocked when you whip it out....
So personally I have no problem with banning open carry at polling places.
And keep your pants zipped fer crissakes.

Not sure why ANYone would object to open carry at polling places.

So are you a "pants optional" kinda guy too?
Sorry, should have been ‘wouldn’t object’.
And yes, pants are always an option.

I thought it sounded a bit out of character for you...
The guns thingie - not the pants....
Just to be clear, when I say ‘pants’, I mean underwear, not trousers.
But trousers are frequently optional as well.
