"But I've never seen anyone open carry".
And this is why everyone who knows the truth needs to be out there carrying unconcealed.

I am, however, a hypocrite because I have never carried openly even though I preach its legality.
I don't think they NEED to. It's a choice.
I would argue he doesn't deserve to have an instructor's certificate.
This guy sounds like another Mark Vanaman....
Scary indeed.
However, on the "not carrying right now" bit.... he is correct. You're not supposed to have live ammo in the room when you're teaching a class. If you don't have ammo, I'd hardly consider that carrying!
All else is utter stupidity!

Jon- I think he said he was not carrying right now meaning during his conversation with farenheit's wife at her place of business not while he was teaching.

Here's a scary one:
My wife told me a patron came to her place of business and somehow a conversation about recent home invasions led to the guy saying he is a firearms instructor. He said that he actually teaches his students that if they see anyone open-carrying, they should call 911! He said something to the effect of "all these people open-carrying in stores and such don't even deserve to have a permit." He went on to say that he doesn't see the need to carry all of the time and that he was not carrying at that particular moment.
WOW :shocker:
His instructions are not only ignorant, but dangerous as well. I would argue he doesn't deserve to have an instructor's certificate.

I know it is "safer" but if you do not trust your students you probably need to find another line of work or a better grade of student. Just because whoever issued your credential that says you qualify as an instructor "prefers" that there be no live ammo in the room only means they do not trust students either.
