when you swing for the fence you will strike out.

Or, when you swing for the fence, you may get a single. When you swing for a single, you get an out. Both are true. The relevant point is timing. Do you realize the other guy has the momentum and propose a copromise, or do you realize that you have the momentum and make him propose the compromise? Either way, you settle. The question is, on who's terms?

Then you strike out, because you weren't ready to be at the plate in the first place.  Let them have concealed in there and all you need is a few people arrested for someone finding out they were armed and you have built their case for never allowing open carry.

Go big or go home!

This is the text from the bill about the firearm being concealed. It give latitude for accidental uncovering of the firearm.

  "Concealed firearm" means a handgun carried on or about a 
 person completely or mostly concealed from view of the public, 
  or carried in a vehicle in such a way as it is concealed from 
 view of the public

Who determines what is "mostly concealed?"  What protects the carrier when he unholsters in the parking lot and places the gun in a holster mounted in the car?  Oooops, a holster mounted in the vehicle is no longer allowed.

In Minnesota we had an issue this winter of a public official that was seen on a parking lot security camera when he stepped from his car.  He had his gun holstered on his belt, and security spotted it as he was putting on his jacket.  He has a permit, and Minnesota is a CARRY state, but they still took his gun from him for investigation.  Where would he be if this had been a conceal carry state?

Over recent years of jumping through the hoops have planted me firmly in the camp of "The Second Amendment IS my carry permit!"

 M58, that's just the thing, "Mostly concealed" leaves wiggle room to argue that if it prints, or shows for any other reason you are not brandishing, as it is still mostly concealed.

Exactly why I am so strong on this.  Remember my waitress experience where I was nailed because she touched me and felt the gun that was fully concealed?

I still think you should have made a sexual harassment, or assault complaint.
If she kept her hands to herself she never would have known.

If I filed suit every time a strange babe groped me I would spend my life in court 


Yawn ... That was a nice nap, and what a dream
