A principle problem with open carry is that people aren't accustomed to seeing their fellow citizens running around armed.
This problem is exacerbated by the simple fact that one cannot become used to seeing something until one is seeing something!
It's the swimming problem. You cannot learn to swim until you're in the water.
The antics of Open Carry Texas are often cited as how not to do it. Rarely have I seen it reported that the goal of OCT is open carry of handguns but since that's illegal, the only legal means to carry openly is with a long arm. It's deliberately ridiculous to make the point that if handgun carry was legal it'd be more sensible.
Rather than look at that, the pro-gun forces join with the anti-gun to demand there be no open carry.
Who sounds the bugle call to rally and condemn the open carrying of guns? Pro-gun bloggers. If you don't read the anti-gun organizations propaganda sites you're only going to read about open carrying at pro-gun web pages.
Think about that. Think about who that helps.
