You ask how we would respond. I answered how I would respond.

I think we had this conversation before.  You can show him The Open Carry Debate article in the last newsletter.  It discusses the pros and cons of open carry, and exposes the oft-repeated myths by anti-OCers.  Be ready to answer the anti-open carry arguments of your friends and family with some of the best reasons to open carry.

It specifically addresses your cousin's concerns.
