The political purpose of openly carrying, imo, is to change public opinion and the law.

The openly carried firearm is a symbol of the responsible American citizen. There is nothing to be afraid of.

Ah, good old Texas, where you can shoot to kill over property.....

Is it really over property? Or is it more about victimization? People don't like being victims, or at least a lot of people don't. Why should the law force people to be victims?

It is also, in some ways about self reliance vs relying upon others. If one does not believe in self but relies upon others, like the police, then what real protections do they have?

And in some cases, some property is necessary for the survival of the individual. Ok, maybe not real survival outside of some drugs and medical equipment, but would take away their means of making a living.

Maybe I should make some OC videos, since I Open Carry 90% of the time.
