I am not taking a position on abortion here, not pro or con.
But an observation I've had over many election cycles.
The real third rail of politics is abortion.
I know of ten (10) women who are very much otherwise conservative who voted for Obama twice because Maverick or Mittens were definitely going to ban abortions.
This ties into open carry because the loudest voices of late who condemn OC will, without hesitation, talk about abortion = murder. Check their blogs.
The pro-life stance gets Democrats elected.
Democrats then pass all kinds of anti-freedom stuff none of us want.
Democrats then nominate and confirm judges who rule on all kinds of anti-freedom stuff none of us want.
Democrats oppose reasonable expansions of all kinds of pro-liberty stuff we all want.
Democrats oppose the nomination and confirmation of judges who would rule on all kinds of pro-liberty stuff we all want.
So, tell me, who's doing more damage here?
Me with no advocacy, or you with a staunch Pro-Life stance?
If the order of the day is to not freak the mundane, there's nothing the mundane have taken to heart like abortion rights. Why is it OK for you to freak them out so bad we lose elections but verboten for open carriers to maybe, possibly, could happen any decade now, change a law to the negative?
Especially with all the fairly liberal, pro-choice, people fleeing to Florida from places like New York.
