Open Carry in Florida
Imagine you’re a young mom, shopping for groceries with your two little kids, and you see a man with an AR-15 strapped across his back. You recognize that this is the weapon of choice for the mass murders of schoolchildren, and so perhaps you’re a bit more afraid than you would have been if it were just a holstered pistol. Are you going to be on national news for the next day or two?
The man looks like the stereotypical MAGA guy, and you remember hundreds of photos of people like him. Is he dangerous? It’s hard to tell.
What would you do?
Here’s what I would do: Leave. Noisily. “Do you think I’m shopping in a place with a guy toting a weapon designed to kill hundreds of people a minute? This is insanity. Goodbye forever. Anyone stupid enough to shop here deserves what he gets.”
