That makes two in one week! A friend of mine just bought his first handgun (he's shot a good bit before), a Beretta 96. He needed ammo so we went to the Lakewood Wally World. Surprisingly they had ammo in stock we got some WWB hollow points. All while open carrying, without any guff from anyone. He was carrying California style while we were going to get ammo.

Another OCer joins the ranks!:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate

I'M THE ONE WHO WAS DEVIRGINIZED! Does this mean I get cookies and beer now?

We walked into Wal-mart to clarify on Paddy's idea of a 'store' lol. Surprisingly like he said, they didn't give us any gruff and were fairly open to us carrying around in public. I realized after walking in there however, we had several heads turning.

This isn't very unusual inside a retail chain or outlet, but the employees didn't give us a hassle and that's the surprising point of the whole story, other than he popped my open carry cherry.

Usually wal-mart is high strung about simple laws and go above and beyond all law lengths to make people inferior to their /flex status of retail DOMINANCEEEEE!

I can haz holster nao?

I'm not far from the Libertarian either. We had an impromptu OC meet with the three of us, just_a_car, SV and myself at a pizza place. Ironically we ordered a pizza from a pizza place downtown Oly that held it's name in honor of Ted Nugent. It was rather tasty, and it was a very large pizza.

I wish the libertarian guys would post more like they used to. I think some of the statist status quo consrvatives and nutters keep them away. They argue the libertarian values a lot better than myself. Oh well I will keep trying. I am not a party politic person but if I was it would be libertarian.
