It's amusing, but a bit over the top to wear while OCing.

We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

and the selling point if you read the descriptionis to say essentially:
"hey ya'll I'm conceal carrying!"
people really confuse me.

pfffft! ...girls.
Somebody pony up 25 bucks, and I'll rock the thing proudly.
I'm far to cheap to pay for it. Besides, the $25 would cover my co-pay after a cop curb stomps my assfor wearing it. :lol:

I like it and think it's funny. Still, bearing in mind the legal aspects of having to defend myself with a gun while wearing it, noooooooot gonna wear that if I'm armed (which means I'm not going to wear it).

Wouldn't wear that shirt while OC'ing. 1A rights and all, but no reason wear it, doesn't reflect my sense of humor.

Plays right into the hands of the idiots who think we're all just waiting for an excuse to blow someone away. Total FAIL.

Seems like a horrible idea to wear a shirt like that at any time.
I may seem like a square old buzzkill, but I think language is very important. I don't use phrases like "just shoot me", "I could just kill that guy", etc.
I think language like that, and shirts like the one shown, are signifiers of people who don't have respect for guns. At least they're seen that way by the general public.
I think it's important to remember that when open carrying, you are an emissary. It's counterproductive to open carry as a right to do or wear something while carrying that seems threatening, even as a joke.
We need to be ambassadors for open carry.
When open carrying I hold doors for little old ladies. I make sure I tip well (sometimes even a little extra) in restaurants. I make sure to say "please" & "thank you." I call strangers "sir" and "ma'am." And I mean it when I say it.
Guns could be outlawed very soon. The one thing that could keep that from happening is more people in the general public having non-negative views of guns.
Most folks can't even wrap their head around the fact that it's legal to carry a gun if you're not a cop, and many are threatened by it. Add in a stupid shirt with a faux-threat on it and the average citizen gets a really bad view of open carry.

On the other hand, I would absolutely wear a shirt that said this, but I've only been able to find it as a bumper sticker:
