In response to above, every LEO and military member I know carries concealed. When asked, a few former students answered similarly: "I carry for safety, not for show."

Again clearly you are entitled to your opinion and you presented it reasonably and respectfully so I thank you for no drama added.
That said I respectfully disagree that open carry is "provocative"
I would argue if anything it is a rampart or a deterrent.
But these are just opinions.
As stated before, all we know with absolute surety is that no harm had come to anyone as a direct result of open carry at the Plymouth Market Basket (the origin of this thread) That is the only absolutely 100% irrefutable statement and has stood the test of all that has been said here. And so with that said, is there really any need to say any more? This is a non-issue. Nothing is wrong, nothing needs to be fixed, nothing needs to be changed except the false notion there is anything concerning about open carry in the Plymouth Market basket.
Are we done yet? how stupid is that question ;-)
