However, as Seamus said, people call the cops for squirrels in their attic.PC §46.035. UNLAWFUL CARRYING OF HANDGUN BY LICENSE
HOLDER. (a) A license holder commits an offense if the license
holder carries a handgun on or about the license holder's person
under the authority of Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code,
and intentionally fails to conceal the handgun.
I accepted the fact when I started carrying that someone might see my gun if the wind blows open my coat or shirt. It can happen. I too would just leave if I thought someone saw it and freaked. If stopped by the police I would explain what happened. Dont know what else you can do. I try to make sure my shirt stays down if its windy and just be mindful. I get more concerned with snagging a shirt or coat on something which exposes your gun. My son is 10 years old and naturally knows I carry. When he was about 8 years old we were in the check out line at the grocery store. Im paying and he is next to me but stumbled or something and smacks his head on the but of my covered pistol. "OWWWW DAD! I hit my head on your gun!" he proclaimed. I literally just facepalmed right there. The cashier just covered her mouth and giggled. I would have said it was my phone but no cell phone would sound like that if hit with your head. I smiled and left.
