About this listen
Should you open carry or keep it concealed? In this episode of We Da People, Shelton, Fred, Colin, and Nick break down the real-world pros and cons, the history behind open carry advocacy, and why decorum, training, and context matter more than clout. What we cover: The difference between open carry for advocacy vs everyday self-defense
- Situational awareness and why visible guns attract attention
- Historical context from the Black Panthers to modern constitutional carry
- Social perception around firearms in public spaces with kids and families
- Gear talk: holsters, retention, appendix carry, belts, and carry position
- Legal mindset: read the law yourself, avoid brandishing, know your state rules
- Responsible culture building in the 2A community
Key takeaways
- Have a clear why for your carry choice
- Concealed carry preserves surprise and reduces unnecessary attention
- Class, professionalism, and training should guide how you present yourself
- Be an advocate without being an agitator
