I have wondered over this question myself. Personally I'd rather see the weapon. Then if during an eviction process etc. I notice the person becoming agitated I can adjust my approach of the matter accordingly.MeMelYup wrote:Why is open carry more dangerous than concealed?
On the flip side, I'm still unconvinced that having a weapon visible doesn't automatically escalate the level of violence in the event of a physical confrontation. Not saying the LTC holders actions would be any different, but a person attacking them is less likely to just shove/grab. They are going to act with increased force to compensate.
Just my theory.
