I was in a gun store (ommitting name on purpose) and asked about their open carry policy. He replied that he didn't have a problem in his shop as long as you were respectful, but that open carry around town was a terrible idea - stating that you become a target for someone who specifically means to do you harm. The situation he used involved that person realizing you had a gun at that point and would hold of his attack until he was prepared.
Said he knew someone who gets harrassed by West Valley Police Dept - WVPD. Apparently the neighbors compalin about this guy a lot as he walks through the neighborhood and openly carries. The owner also said he would support the neighbors if a "disturbing the peace" charge was ever brought against the guy.
From what I've read in Mitch Vilos' book, this is a possibility for every person who openly carries.
The owner also asked me why I would risk so much to open carry, which I replied "because I can". Seems to me that a right unused is a right lost.
Don't know how you all feel about this, let's discuss!!
