re: Open carry vs concealed carry

I have been in law enforcement for almost 30 years. The sight of someone open carrying makes me cringe. A LEO will always have his hand near the firearm to keep someone from trying to take it. That comes from training you receive. I see people in public who are oblivious to exposing the weapon to everyone. My first thought when I see this is, someone is going to take their weapon from them and use it against them. Cover it up, conceal it, do something. Stop trying to be a billy bad-arse when you have no clue about weapon retention.
