Florida,which is one of the most conservative states in the Union and was the first state to adopt unrestricted concealed carry, STILL does no allow open carry of firearms.

Open carry is wonderful; it makes it clear to the bad guys that there is anarmed citizenry who are ready and able to act against them.

Missouri,my home state, has unrestricted carry - no licensing required and you can walk around with agun strapped to you as you please.

Ron DeSantis is a big proponent of open carry, but many in the state legislature still fear it - and fear the gun control lobby.

Only New York, California,and Illinois - the three People's Republics - still ban open carry. And Florida. Nobody else does.

The Republican Senate leader Ben Albritten is a staunch opponent of open carry despite the fact that it has been a success in every other state. I would add that Florida has more than it's share of mass shootings and one wonders if that isn't a function of their banning open carry? Certainly the knowledge of an armed citizenry often acts as a deterrent.
