i just don't know. reading the article, that was no less than a total shoot out, I've seen video of shoot outs and shooters simply start firing randomly with little thought/mental clarity to aim or follow training procedures etc. i.e. start allowing everyone to conceal and i have a feeling we are going to start needing body bags for innocent people.

Um...Not everyone can conceal. Only those who can legally own. If the Government trusts you enough to allow you to buy a gun then why don't they trust you to carry it concealed? MOST people who are legal do not do the kind of shit you are referring to. I've seen a few of the videos you are referring to and they were all gang bangers or drunks in a bar. Neither of which can lawfully carry concealed or otherwise.

Current laws allow legal gun owners to open carry with no license in 50% of the United States. http://opencarry.org/opencarry.html
