    There's no reason whatsoever in a civilised society to carry a gun concealed and/or open carry in a public place.

    As our out-of-control gun violence epidemic shows, the US is not a civilized society.
    Thus, reason.
    As if we needed to demonstrate one.

    well if it is so civilized there is no reason to push for more restrictions on individuals to own guns since everything is so peaceful.

    It's out of control because of the 2nd Amendment overriding common sense and America still being a developing country.

    What's the point? Would this stop some weird bent on mayhem? Also prioritize the whackos target plan.

    I gave "Yes" a pity vote since nobody else has ;)

    I really wouldn't get too worked up if that were the law, but it is not a hill I am going to set foot on, let alone die on.

    Glad you realise America is not a developed nation and is just above 3rd World nations.

    Glad you recognize the fact Americans have a legitimate reason for carrying a gun.
    Not that your opinion mattered...

    ^^^^^
    Unfathomable irony

    I am -certain- you cannot demonstrate an increase in gun related violence, anywhere in the US, at any time in US history, caused by the 2nd Amendment.
    For you to make such a demonstration, you must demonstrate the necessary relationship between an increase in gun-related violence and the striking of a relevant restriction of firearms use/ownership by a court on 2nd Amendment grounds.

    See? You can't do it. Just like I said.
    Thus your stinking heap of unsupportable nonsense.

    Only in our urban hell holes ruled by the DP. Which is indeed a national shame.
    Our urban slums are a synthetic 3rd world system carefully crafted by a systemic institutional racism that the DP has always depended for its survival.

    Should civilians who carry guns be required to do so openly?

    Our state doesn't allow open carry. They want handguns concealed to avoid intimidating others. Concealed permits are readily available to law abiding citizens. So it isn't a settled issue to be sure.
