If we show them that carrying concealed weapons is unacceptable, then the few who still insist on carrying openly will quickly find themselves ostracized and laws will hopefully be changed and SCOTUS will re-examine the true desire of the founders.

OK, it's time for a poll about CC vs. OC [View all] Starboard Tack Sep 2013 OP

I wanted to prohibit both OC and CC without a permit but that wasn't an option. denverbill Sep 2013 #1

Me too. Carrying guns in public, particularly cities, parks, etc., is just wrong. Hoyt Sep 2013 #3

I agree, but that isn't what the poll is about. Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #14

I agree with you and I resent the fact that our option is not included. CTyankee Sep 2013 #6

Which option is not included? Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #15

I don't like either one. I feel it is a false option for those of us who are not in agreement with CTyankee Sep 2013 #18

Neither do I, but we live in a reality where both exist right now. Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #21

No, that is a ploy to get folks used to seeing people walking around with guns and accepting it. CTyankee Sep 2013 #23

You've gotta be kidding. I give up Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #24

I think most of us would like to see both prohibited, but that is not the point of this poll Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #11

No to the "lesser of two evils." Sorry, no dice. CTyankee Sep 2013 #19

forget about it. You don't get to tell us what we choose. CTyankee Sep 2013 #20

WTF. In my poll I get to determine the choices. Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #30

I think I have been pretty clear. CTyankee Sep 2013 #33

I don't want to be around anyone carrying a gun. upaloopa Sep 2013 #2

agreed upaloopa Sep 2013 #9

I agree 100%. So, please vote. Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #16

Why can't we prohibit both BainsBane Sep 2013 #7

Because that would be a different poll. Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #28

Then why PM me, asked me to look at the poll again BainsBane Sep 2013 #31

I'm thinking we shouldn't disappoint those who are convinced SheilaT Sep 2013 #10

Carrying a gun billh58 Sep 2013 #12

Thanks Mike Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #17

Ban all guns was my vote gopiscrap Sep 2013 #22

Good luck with that. Starboard Tack Sep 2013 #29

What's going on with the second to last option? BainsBane Sep 2013 #25

None of the above . orpupilofnature57 Sep 2013 #26

Open carry in public is for jackasses! rdharma Sep 2013 #27

Very true and CC in public, without a damned good reason, is for sneaky jackasses Starboard Tack Oct 2013 #36
