Open carry drama

From GeorgiaPacking.org, via Says Uncle, this story about a security guard attempting to disarm a citizen who was open carrying legally. It didn't go well for the security guard:

Security guard today just tried to physically dis-arm me. Grabbed my right arm with his left hand and attempted to grab my pistol grip with his right. Elbow to the face and a back step rear kick/shin scrape to his right knee/shin...turned and hit him with a full body roundhouse punch.


The guard has a broken nose, broken jaw, and a torn meniscus. Victim (the open carrier) is doing well, and the DA says (after looking at surveillance film) no charges to be filed against him.

But of course, it's started a whole new ferfluffle about OC, to or not to. With predictable responses.

I think the hardest thing to stomach is that the anti-OC folks always seem to couch their argument like this - 'I believe that open carry should be legal, but we civilized firearms owners would never open carry.'

Hey, next time the discusion comes up, you no-open-carry folks can look in my cooler, where you'll find a nice, cold can of STFU.

Enjoy!
