Wow.... talk about intolerance and ignorance. And this from a person who had just previously made a statement that LEOs are clueless, andall police recruits with prior military training or firearms experience will suck at the range due to an overabundance of testosterone.... except for ex-Special Forces, for some reason they don't have too much testosterone.

I heard a story yesterday about the owner of a local gun store carrying his gun to a retail store (I think Walmart) and it was exposed on his belt. That is legal here in Tennessee with the carry license, though not recommended. A concerned shopper called the police - when the police officer got there, he made the guy with the gun get down on the floor, handcuffed him in front of his family and put him in the squad car. The gun owner was trying to tell the officer that the law allowed for open carry in Tennessee, but the officer didn't fully understand Tennessee's carry laws. Well, I'm sure I mis-stated something or other, but the main idea was that the officer didn't know the details of the law and probably erred on the "safe" side. I think the guy who was carrying the pistol teaches some of the carry classes at his store, and uses this story as an illustration on his recommendation to keep the firearms concealed when carrying.

The Bozo carrying an exposed handgun in the Wal Mart deserved it. Exposed carry laws are for hunters not somebody picking up milk,bread,eggs, and kotex for or with their wives and families All he was doing was drawing attention to himself and making hinself and his family, targets.
