96. How does it "cause problems"?
Edited on Sun Jan-23-11 02:32 PM by PavePusher
If Civil Rights do not "cause problems", they fix problems.you mean that ignorant people panic and ill-trained police over-react, then maybe you have a point. But even that happens very rarely in the places where open carry is legal, rarer still where it is fairly common.

And it won't get common unless people do it, and everyone sees that the sky doesn't fall.

If we went by your criteria of "causing problems", women and non-whites would not be able to vote, gays wouldn't be able to hold hands or kiss in public, I wouldn't be able to read many of my favorite pieces of literature or speak about my opinions... I'm sure you get the picture.

Civil Rights do not "cause problems", they fix problems.
