What's the point of getting a concealed weapon permit in states that allow open carry?
>with open carry you don't need to pass a background check
>you don't need a license of any kind of your state permits open carry
>potential threats will SEE your gun and be deterred from starting the incident that would cause you to use your firearm

As long as this thread is here I might as well ask it.
Why are concealed carry classes a mandatory minimum length?
What do you do for 8-10 hours?

because some states require a concealed carry permit to legally have a weapon within reach in your car. also open carry in public is for attention whore faggots.

Cops don't like seeing your average /k/ spergs with a gun, ticket bitches use it as an excuse to check and run your id and cite you for dropping gumwrappers and jaywalking

>Stared at like an autist wherever you go
>Can't go into places with "PWEES NO GUNS THX :^)" signs

>Pointlessly upset and draw attention from normies
The only reason to OC is that your parents never gave you enough attention and now you demand it from strangers

Because with CC you can go about your business without being flagged as a dangerous asshole by everyone who sees you.
I think a lot of the attention issues people get from open carry would go away if more people open carried and made it more of a normal thing.

Real Life
I recently moved to Las Vegas for work and haven't yet hit 21. I recently had the idea to try open carrying in the Strip because a gun in the open is better than no gun at all while I'm waiting to CC, except for every single business telling you to GTFO. Big problem is that some places own the sidewalks and can keep you from getting to a whole fucking destination for it.
Even places without a "no funs" sign might have rules against it and there's no way of knowing besides going in then spilling a gallon of spaghetti when they tell you to go away when all you fucking wanted was a god-damn cheeseburger.
It's really just 100X better to CC as to not deal with retarded business policies and, like what many others are saying, it makes you less of a target. Guns are expensive and plenty of less law-abiding people would murder you in cold blood for yours before you even had time to react.
