I greatly prefer it that way - it seems to me to be the most honest and accountable way to carry. Not to mention that it is the best arrangement for a clean, quick draw if you need it.<br /><br />Also, visual deterrence is a powerful ally, and I never even have to acknowledge that I am carrying; it speaks for itself.<br /><br />And when someone approaches you and objects to you visible equipment, simply smile and tell them that, "A gun in its holster is safer than a car in a garage", and drive on. <br /><br />Snivelers never know what to say in response, so it gives me a polite exit point if that's what I want. Those who are on the fence, however, invariably want an explanation for my statement... which invites a good conversation on individual rights, responsibilities, and how that leads to real benefits for society.<br /><br />YMMV, but that's what I've been doing for the last 8 years or so, and it works well for me...LThttp://www.ncrenegade.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-53047471992438491812015-03-26T13:49:32.403-07:002015-03-26T13:49:32.403-07:00;);)Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17465944474238091234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-11268408858852415902015-03-26T10:03:00.430-07:002015-03-26T10:03:00.430-07:00No Now Sam.............Be nice to the old feller. ...No Now Sam.............Be nice to the old feller. :)Bill Ford IIInoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-78827833505750399252015-03-26T09:00:28.361-07:002015-03-26T09:00:28.361-07:00Heh - the words "We will not comply" mus...Heh - the words "We will not comply" must mean something different in Alabama than they do in the rest of the English-speaking world.
