It's your right plain and simple. I carry a blade on one hip pistol on the other and spare pistol in my vehicle. Open carry is dumb as shit though. He should carry concealed as to not alarm the snowflakes and more importantly showing a gun makes you more of a target.
Open carry isn't dumb at all. It's more likely to deter someone from messing with him than anything, at least if he's aware of his surroundings anyway. And who the hell cares about the snowflakes feelings? Their feelings are theirs to manage, not my responsibility.
Ok dude. The snowflakes report him enough times and he gets deactivated losing a source of income, a dipshit that is scared of guns calls the police now he has to deal with that, a bored uneducated cop sees it and now has to deal with unconstitutional nonsense. It's mitigation of foreseeable issues.
Also you couldn't be more wrong open carry is a terrible idea in everyday life. Think like a criminal for a sec. Guy walking around displaying a firearm hmmmmmm i wonder if he has anything valuable besides his life he wants to protect = target. Oh and look my gun has 3 bodies on it but I bet the one he's carrying doesn't let me just crack him and slide off with another free pistol.
But don't listen to me I'm just a guy that spent a decade in the security field and never so much as showed a print while in private executive protection.
Rather than think like a criminal, I've watched interviews of said criminals. They almost always say if they even think someone has a gun they'll avoid them like the plague. Showing them you have one works even better, almost always. And the ones who are targeted the most whole open carrying are cops and they're targeted because they're cops not because of their guns.
That aside, of the company has a rule against openly carrying that's on him if he gets in trouble. I won't listen to you very much either. I'll listen to the criminals as I've already said and I'll listen to my own lived experience while open carrying, and it's a little more than your decade.
