I think it will pass without problem - I hope so. I've had my CC permit since 1996, and will continue to carry concealed, and it will be nice to not have to worry about the possibility of exposing it. However, there is a group of open carry supporters that have been demonstrating in areas of the Dallas/Ft Worth area that has been getting some negative media attention because people are seeing men and women walking around intersections carrying their AK and AR weapons slung over their shoulders. I know the message they're trying to relay, and I agree, but they're not reflective of the vast majority of CC holders. My impression is that they are only trying to draw attention to themselves, not the real issue/goal. They're also the ones that I'd feel somewhat uncomfortable being around in a open carry environment.
