And the problem is? The Sheep need to learn, there were probably 16 million AR that did not shot anything yesterday. If it was strapped to his back how was it a threat?
Do I advocate doing same? No, I'll stick to a holstered pistol, but I am not going to soil my shorts because someone is walking down the street, or even into a store with a slung rifle.
The idots are the ones that ran out of the store.
No it isn't. The point for carrying a gun or rifle is to have a tool for killing close at hand. If you choose to use it only for self defense, then that's your choice. When I carry a gun or rifle, I'll do it for my own purposes, until the 2A is amended to state that it is merely for self defense.The point of a carry weapon is self-defense...
I disagree. Yes it is within his right to do so, so I'm not going to tell him he can't or call the police because he's legally armed, but it's not necessarily a good idea, and not just because you're scaring "sheeple".
You're drawing attention to yourself that you don't want. The point of a carry weapon is self-defense, so lets put him into that scenario. He goes into the store in his AR, and someone else is in the store with a pistol with the intent to rob it. The criminal sees the dude with the AR and thinks "I'm gonna shoot him first so he won't shoot me." It'd be to your advantage to carry a low profile pistol so you don't get targeted first. A pistol in a good carry holster is also more obtainable quickly than a rifle on your back.
Also, while I may not call the police or flee from said AR carrying citizen, I would definitely use caution around him. You always need to be aware of your surroundings and asses potential threats, and a guy with an AR is pretty much #1 on that list.

The only other reason I can think of for having "a tool for killing close at hand," besides self-defense, is hunting. I hope that is the one you are talking about. And probably doesn't do any of us much good to describe guns in that way.

I remember a day when I was a teenager I rode a bicycle with a shotgun strapped to my back through the middle of town to get to my favorite hunting spot. There wasn't a single soul that said a word to me and/or called the police.
We had one from Oregon carry an AR into a Fred Meyer in Garden City last week. The store was ok with it, but, someone called the pd who completely overstepped and over reacted. Took it upon themselves to tell the guy that the store tresspassed him. He later called the store and they told him he was welcome back with his AR.
