"A picnic brought people together who like to openly carry their weapons [in York, Pennsylvania].

. . .

Pennsylvania law allows people [to] carry a firearm in plain sight. The participants at the picnic had chatted through an online forum.
"It's a right we have and if we don't use it, it'll end up getting taken away," said James Jackson of Shrewsbury Township.

Some who openly carry a gun also have a permit to carry it concealed.

Supporters say they like openly carrying a gun for protection of loved ones, and it's a deterrent to people thinking of committing a crime.
