If there was no PSH in a mall and someone noticed does it make a sound?
Yes. Here’s an editorial that opens with: Open-carry puts shoppers on edge
Yet, it cites no one actually being on edge or anything all that exciting. I guess they must mean the editorial board was there and on edge. And then, there’s this:
But, as Sunday’s experience demonstrates, there’s a problem with open carry: When that person walks through the door, how can customers tell if the person bearing the weapon is a potential rescuer or killer?
In other words, is the guy or gal with the gun angry with the store’s management or return policy, or simply browsing for a new digital camera?
Well, if it’s in his hand and he’s pointing it at someone, that’s a pretty sure indication.

I like how they pigeon hole all permit holders into two buckets: rescuers or killers.

I a person (man) walks into a store with his penis, how do we know that he isn’t a rapist? If a person has a vagina, how do we know she isn’t a whore?

“Most retail establishments seem to have made a calculated choice that it is better to allow customers to carry firearms than incur the protests of pro-gun activists.” Since when?
“Otherwise, shoppers are forced to make a hasty decision about the gun-bearer’s mental state and propensity for violence.” He asked me about the warranty on the new Toyotas and that is when I knew he was about to start killing everyone in the dealership. Pa-lease. The whole damn community knew Jared Loughner was as crazy as a out-house rat. No one was suprised when he was the shooter. People have no trouble knowing when someone is upset.
