I hear ya. I do think there's a grain of truth to the deterrence of concealed carry, but open carry.. basically exactly your story is my concern.

Washington state is fairly progressive (thankfully), I think it'd be good for people who might be both conservative and emboldened by the incoming administration for the state to make it pretty public that approximately x number of people have concealed carry permits, and that open carry isn't legal.

Just leave it at that, keep those very fuckheads who want to come in and fuck around nervous.
