OK, it's time for a poll about CC vs. OC (GCRKBA Edition) [View all]

This poll was posted over in GCRA and one of the members over there suggested I try it here, so here it is.

How do you feel about the carriage of firearms in public by private citizenry?

For the purposes of this poll, we can assume that your preferences will be achieved whether the appropriate legislation is passed at the state or federal level. At issue is not how such legislation is passed, but whether or not you would like people to carry firearms on their persons outside the home.

Please feel free to explain your choice below.

OC = Open carry, generally understood to mean that the firearm is visible to the public.
CC = Concealed Carry, generally understood that the firearm is carried under some sort of cover garment and undetectable under casual observation by the public.

Starbucks coffee tastes like burned panther piss filtered through a sulpher seive and subjected to a chlorine sonic jiggle bath with a pair of Dennis Rodman's dirty sweatsocks under a full moon.
