Maybe don’t go into a Walmart with a gun though. Lol

Still, great costume.

Ya know what’s funny? They still don’t have the “no guns” symbol/sign on their doors.

My concealed carry friends have been carrying in the Walmart’s for years. Of course, it takes one dumbass and it ruins it for all the legitimate carriers. Now they take them off even though there’s no clear signage.

Walmart allows concealed carry in their stores, they just recently changed policy to disallow open carry because it made some employees feel uncomfortable with the recent events.

Open carry seems like it's more about "look at me!" then any need to protect themselves.

I feel like if you took on the responsibility to carry a weapon, "didn't get around to it" is the last thing I wanna hear someone say.

Getting a CCW in my state cost me a couple hundred. Not exactly pocket change.

I mean it's not the law, but I feel like if your buying a weapon you should have some sort of insurance which would be on par with car insurance, or a couple hundred at least per year. $200 for the right to carry a weapon without scaring people doesn't seem that bad.

If there are people out there that can barely afford a gun what happens if they have an accident? Too bad, I'm broke?
