Hurt and dissapointed... but very proud. Cabelas open carry.

Sorry to say but with recent events, if I'm in a public place and I see an uncased rifle, the first thought through my mind will be "TROUBLE!!!".  I'm going to Orange and getting out of there if possible.

I'm not waiting around to see if it's a maniac or a merely an ardent 2A guy carrying it.  Better safe than sorry.

And if I, an ardent 2A supporter feel that way, imagine how the sheep feel.

Well??????

While I do believe in Total Firearm Rights, unfortunately OC is a touchy subject (as obvious here) and must be approached in a careful manner.  Politely leaving when asked and not letting the situation proceed to the point the police are called is the best outcome you could have had this time. 

I will however, go on record as saying I DO NOT wish to hold any sort of "protest" on Cabela's grounds.  The NFOA has worked in the past to establish a "partnership" with Nebraska based corporations and that effort is to be  renewed.  An event like that would hurt the effort immensely.

NENick:
How can we work with people like the original poster in a way that doesn't send them running? He'll probably never come back here. I think taking Long arms to Cabela's was an unsophisticated approach to a sophisticated issue. Perhaps if we could give people like this the knowledge necessary to make more informed decisions, we'd solve many future problems?

He's clearly motivated enough to take action. We should have helped him figure out how to get a higher return on the investment he's willing to make.

NE Bull:
I am interested in hearing more ideas, but we have to be careful not to burn any bridges, we need all the help we can get.

I have contemplated more OC myself, but the sad fect is we have to be selective and careful in that approach.
