Of course Open Carry is a "movement".... but it isn't the movement most folks think... the reason Open Carry scares so many anti's is:
Open Carry is a publicly glaringly obvious affirmation of individual strength of character, of personal independence, of courage of convictions, of true freedom, and a loud call for all to hear that rights supersede agendas.
The fear of the anti's isn't the gun itself... it never was... it is that average folks will wake up and heed that call.
And even those who OC for the sole purpose of self defense and don't intend, or even want, to make a statement for freedom and rights are still part of the "movement" because....
Regardless of the reason an individual has for carrying a sidearm in plain sight those who see that sidearm hear the message of freedom it represents loud and clear.... even if the person carrying it has no interest in sending the message the message is still there.
And that message drives the insecure selfish control freaks who seek to dominate others... simply bonkers because it is the stark reality of everything they are not.
