Is that plain enough for you?

The reason this is a legal issue is that the right to carry arms in public is a right that only a minority support. Even in states where shall issue carry permits are the norm, not more than 5% of the population perform the simple steps to get one. Minorities can generally only turn to the courts for support.

The open carry movement is an excellent idea to desensitize the public to the law abiding carrying firearms but for now its only wise in states that have a right to keep and bear arms in their state constitutions. The reason for that is that when the inevitable arrest or police harassment occurs, the OCer has leverage. Here in California the UOCer has been convicted, lest I need to remind you of that issue.
