IIRC = If I remember correctly...
It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

IIRC = If I recall correctly, which I don't.  I stand corrected. The Kroger policy is refreshing even though they caved after Parkland and pulled a Dicks move.  I don't know why I had that recollection, since it seems to be a longstanding policy.

I open carried on and off for years, Even got involved with some group picnics and such. All very nice folks.
I mostly carry cc but now and than during hot wether I maybe open.

I have never been bothered by LEO. I think your personality goes along way towards easing peoples minds.

As a store manager I see open carriers almost everyday come in store. One guy wears a hunting knife on one side and a 1911 on the other. No one bats a eye because he is always friendly and polite.
Lots of truck driver sopen carry.
I think Seattle is about as unfriendly as you can get for open carry. They been trying to end 2A rights in public for years.

With some exceptions open carry is legal everywhere in Washington, although doing so in Seattle will likely attract "attention".

 :yeah: 

in today's world, it would be almost accessory before the fact NOT to report someone walking around with a gun on their hip or over their shoulder.  Some kid shot up a synagogue today with a long gun :(
Yes being guilty of carrying a gun on your hip is a serious offense. Crazy how the world has changes in a short while. Used to walk around with a 22 shooting squirrels in the neighborhood. Kids took rifles to school to hunt in the evening. Now you're a criminal for carrying one.

Not a criminal, but you will be checked on.  You never walked around with a 22 shooting squirrels in Seattle.  Squirrels are protected in WA. :)

My nickname in HS was Ducks because I would show up to my first class direct from the duck blind and the teacher loved to tease me about it.  My duck boat was on top my car in the parking lot, and my gun was in the trunk.  Nobody gave a hoot
No I never shot squirrels in Seattle. Haha I was just ranting in general.
