[pct-l] first night out

[Ron Dye]

I'm licensed to carry in all 50 states and won't carry a firearm.  There
simply isn't a need.

IMHO if you conceal, it is next to useless.

But if you carry in the open, people will be put off. I ran into a guy at
Bagby Hot Springs that was carrying an assault rifle to 'protect his kids'.
His presence made me extremely uncomfortable. Perhaps that was the
intention.

Goodness
