While I was at work last night, I was talking to a co-worker about guns.
When I mentioned that I OC, he asked me why the heck I would do that.
I explained the whole insurance policy idea.
He says (paraphrased) "I come from a time when everyone carried a gun in their car, but nobody would carry in the store!"
So I asked him if he thought concealed carry was okay. He said that was fine.
I asked him why it was okay to CC, but not to OC.
He responded that it wouldn't scare people. He then said that he would be nervous if he saw someone OC, EVEN IF IT WAS ME! Kinda funny since he knows me.
Then I asked him why he would be nervous.
He said because they might shoot someone. So I asked him if people shot each other a lot when he was younger.
He said no they didn't. I asked him what difference did it make if they carried it on their hip or if it was in their car? I mean after all, they are both readily available.
At this point he decided that he didn't want to discuss it anymore and I didn't push it.
Very interesting.
