I think it would be a good idea to collect some data to possibly use in arguments against the "open carry ban" in the future. I dont have any specific intent as to what to do with or what to use the data for, but I just think it might be helpful later on.

I'm looking for a quick blurb about yourself. NO PERSONAL INFO! Just a quick bit about yourself that might help show the demographic of us "dangerous open carriers". something tells me we arent a dangerous crowd...

I will start:



Former U.S. Marine

Part time student going for a BS in network management

Working full time as a semiconductor chemical abatement technician

I'm a "right wing extremist". I try to avoid all federal income tax in protest of Big Government socialism. I am white, I am a Christian, I own my own business and I have never been arrested or convicted of any crime in my life.
