I have been sitting here the last (however long it's since I found opencarry.org), feeling sorry for myself that it's gonna be a few more weeks until I can take my class and turn in my app for a license. I've reading, and re-reading in a few cases, all the tales of "I OC'd today, nothing happened" and "this guy OC'd and got a LEO mad at him", all the while thinking "what happens when I get my license? Will I have these same problems?" Then, today, a thought popped into my head that Caused me to literally stop and raise my eyebrows (making me glad I was inside my house at the time)....
Since I have to wait until later in September before I take the class, then the "90 days" waiting for them to okay it and send it to me, I'm going to be well past the OC date of Nov 1. So, while I sit here anticipating the day I can finally carry legally, I will get to see how the local LEO deals with it, and be better prepared for my time While I don't get to OC the day it goes active (if that's the right way to say it), it is hopeful that by the time I do, you good people that go before me will have educated the police for me, preventing me from having any trouble!
So, while I still sit here bemoaning the fact that I can't carry quite yet, I get to glory in the fact that others will go before me and pave the way for me to exercise my 2A rights. More power to ya, and may you have a trouble free time of OC here in good old OK!
