If she is so concerned that the law abiding like to carry their guns concealed and need a permission slip to do so, I say eff it. We should all make a point of making open carry the new norm. See how the sheep like seeing a sidearm every time they turn around. Her office will be fielding a whole new slew of calls every day from the scared sheep types.
No. Open carry is scary. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Anyone who open carries is an attention whore and an idiot. It doesn't help our cause. It will only lead to more restrictions on it. I support the 2nd Amendment but that is just a bad idea.
