Wow... Thank goodness this thread did not get highjacked....
You guys know who you are.....:lol:
On Point....
As stated in another post, (for me), dealing with the curious and even the anti's has almost gotten routinue (although seems like less anti's lately), but dealing with someone(s) who are intoxicated is not something I have had to do or look forward to. Seem's like a no win situation to me...
Respond with calm factual answers, end the conversation quickley, saftely walk away at first opportunity (watching your back as you leave), ready to respond to more aggression if need be...
Or
Respond as MKEgal suggested with confidence, forcefull, face to face answers, with confident body language, etc.
Both seem appropriate and I would decide which way to go based on the need within the first few seconds of the intial contact...
Excellent OP as to give us all a chance to re-evaluate our "plan" in dealing with the public while open carrying.
