    Guns are safer and more powerful when you don’t flaunt them around like a personality trait. This is why many states that allow conceal carry won’t allow you to open carry, you make yourself an early target and your weapon becomes someone else’s.

      That’s awesome. I never understood concealed carry being illegal if open carry was not.

      One time back in HS I got stopped by the cops for being out past curfew and allowed them to search my bag (mistake) and they found a pocket knife I had forgotten was in there. They said they could confiscate it and give me a citation for carrying a concealed weapon and I was like “what do you want me to do, walk around holding it?” They said “leave it home” which is obviously not helpful if you actually need a knife.

        Next time I buy a knife I’ll be carrying it home like a serial killer ready to stab someone.
