This is an open carry debate thread in disguise. Like open carrying without open carrying, by disguising it by wearing a shirt with a gun on it.

Discretion is the better part of not provoking some drunk cretin till I am forced to use my gun. Which I would be advertising with a shirt like that.
I wouldn't worry about "shoot me first", but rather the inebriated "Oh, you think you're tough, huh?"
Low profile for me. Safer for everybody.
But then I don't ride a bike either.

My guess is that the message on the shirt is directed at motorists more than would be criminals. When you are riding 18 pounds of carbon fiber and surrounded by people driving 5000 pounds of steel and looking at their phones, a message like that *might* get people's attention better than the usual shirt that says something like "5 feet please".
Right
I see a lot of those bikers up here ridding around the lake, they cause their own problems.While I'm not condoning violence if a biker with a shirt like that gets involved the person that runs him off the road will do it so diligently and successfully that the gun he has will be impressed about 6'' into his body, along with a few bike parts.

Not really...he could be bluffing. Just like a guy who threatened me once while reaching into his jacket. Froze in his tracks when he saw my hand on that glock 23. He didn't see THAT coming!

Why not just wear a "kick me" sign on his back?
A quick search of the board yields 5,400 results for "concealed carry open carry". They rarely go well, so let's agree to disagree.
