I think they will get more complaints from the regular customer who doesn't want to see gun toting people in the restaurant while they are eating. That is a larger group than the the Open Carry crowd, so their voice will be louder.
If I was the bad guy, I would shoot the people who are dong open carry before robbing a store. With concealed carry, you don't know who has a gun or not, and it's a lot harder to shoot everyone opposed to a few who have visible weapons.
I'm not keeping up, but only 3 JiB's robbed? I expect they have more than that on any given day robbed, so it's just a part of doing business. If they had to shut down all the stores that get robbed to clean up the broken glass and blood from a shooting, the costs would outweigh what it costs now. Open Carry will be banned as a general rule at most businesses, so I don't see what is to be gained from all the rallies.
