Re: Jerry Brown signs ban on open-carry of handguns




"If" someone had a pistol on his hip, are you likely to attack him?

Andy comments:
Of course not. If I was wanting to hold the place up, I'd wait
till
his back was turned and shoot him in the back of the head, since
he has identified himself as a target..

If I wanted to rob him, I'd wait till his back was turned and
shoot
him in the back of the head....

Pinning a target on yourself by wearing a gun openly just lets
the mad guy know to use the element of surprise, and which
targets need to be eliminated first.....

Carrying a concealed weapon is not an invitation to be shot at
first, by a person who will surprise you since he is forewarned...

Think it through.... If you were the bad guy, and you wanted to
rob or worse, what would you do if someone had a gun on his
hip, and you had one hidden under your coat ???

PS... Jerry, it isn't necessary to repeat a person's post in it's
entirety before you reply.....
