Although I am not personally a fan, I have no objection to people open carrying. It's a right. That said, I spent years open carrying in uniform. I have had people get a little too interested in my sidearm. Consequently, I do not open carry now unless I'm hunting or working around our rural Arizona place. Any time I am in public, my weapon is concealed.
The Bearing Arms news article illustrates one of the dangers of open carry. If you live in a jurisdiction where open carry is legal and you decide to do it, I suggest you take the following steps:
1. Carry in a level III retention holster. Practice your draw regularly. It's a little tricky.
2. Carry a backup.
3. Get some training in weapon retention.
4. Be VERY aware of the people around you.
5. Reconsider your decision. Carrying concealed is much less problematic.
