Open carry because as I have always said a armed society is a polite society.

Conceal is safer I think..as it does give you an advantage if something bad is going down.
But open is easier to carry for me and I can draw faster if my gun is on the outside..

Can I have it both ways?

I would prefer open carry to concealed, but that's not legal here. If people were used to seeing pistol packin Moms and Dads, then society as a whole would be completely different than what we have today (More personal responsibility maybe?). Odds are people would be more polite.

I carry both ways depending on the occasion. Concealed is safer for several reasons but I do like to flex my rights now and again.  8)

I would carry conceled as I do now...I like to have the element of surprise on my side, but I would not hold it against anyone who chose to carry openly.

Concealed.  I don't want any trouble, don't want to scare any sheeple, and I have nothing to prove to anyone.

Now this changes for things like Wild Bill Days down in Deadwood when I can strap on my Peacemaker, hunting, or I'm in my backyard.  Then I'll open carry/
