I favor the right of open carry. But I would not employ it everyday. Here's a couple of Georgia cases from this year showing why:

(Yes, I see other commonalities in these cases, but I couldn't possibly list all the cases that fit that.)

For me, open carry--beyond being a right--seems best suited to (1) eliminate any possibility of getting busted for inadvertantly revealing a gun, and (2) for when you want to "peacock" a gun (say in a post-hurricane situation) to just push the bad guys down the road to your dopey, liberal, unarmed neighbors.

Believe it or not, we totally agree! And, in the absence of a true OC law in FL, at least they could clean up the "Improper display/brandishing" law to remove that discretion given to LE. It's #3 on my "fab-4" list.

1) Repeal and eliminate Red flag laws
2) Make "Civil Asset forfeiture" illegal.
3) Clarify brandishing law to remove that "discretion."
4) Join with other states to form a compact to combat Federal Anti-2A interference.
