I don't get wanting to draw attention to yourself.
I dang sure don't want the bad guy knowing I am armed and have just become the first target.
Really?
cause it's usually pretty easy to spot the concealed carry guys from my experience.
WARNING, this may be offensive to some!
1. Usually wearing a vest or billowy long shirt of some sort
2. Usually older white guys with some extra pounds
3. Rarely smiles in public, like they don't like "people"
4. Usually has a look while out that they're a "wolf among sheep", like they're on alert
5. Many times (not always) wearing some sort of brimmed hat, cowboy or Indiana Jones style
6. If they wear glasses it's the metal framed type
7. When they rarely go to the mall, they hang out at the bookstore
There are a few other types, but this is the biggest group that I see. Men that never met a stranger usually do not carry, gregarious men that smile a lot in public while having a good time with friends/family don't carry, men that are muscular from a hard work and NOT working out usually don't carry (fat has nothing to do with this). Women are a little different, and they have purses.
I'm sure this will offend some, and may not describe you, just be aware that you may not be as concealed as you think. I don't personally concealed carry, but don't think I should have to get daddy government's permission if I wanted to, 2nd Amendment is pretty clear.
