the 11th I went to Hyatt Gun Shop and finally purchased my Glock 19. That night I dropped my sister off to Karate, walked in the school and.....nothing......no gasps, no pointing. Of course it was just and instructer and three students at that time, so it didn't really count.
The next day brought me out of work. I needed to pick up a few things but feared for my job so I went parked next door in Harris Teeter and holstered up in the car (now that was a good trick, try it sometime). I strollled out into the parking lot, feeling real good, not scared one bit, in fact I was excited. I walked into the doors and.....nothing......no stares......no gasps.......nobody diving for cover.......nothing. As I was looking for my products (what appeared to be) the store manager walked behind me down a whole isle and kept on walking not saying a word to me. Perhaps he didn't notice. I did my shopping and glided out of the store like I didn't even have a gun. That night Dad wanted to pick up some Banana cream pie (yum yum) so I thought I'd escort him. We got in and out, and the same thing happened.......nothing. My brother's fears of me being hassled all day did not occur.........yet. I'm sure something will happen; but hassles will not be a common place like he worries.
This is not a promo for Opencarry. But I seriously wouldn't have even thought of OCing if it wasnt for the fact a month ago I accidently found this website. After reading and posting, I was very confident and felt like I had things under control because of all the info and encouragement I got here. Thanks Open Carry!:celebrate
