I read this as follows: If a person does not routinely carry a concealed weapon, but only does so when he believes the probability of its need is high, this may be seen as a provocation. However, if one routinely carries a concealed weapon, the fact that a person is carrying the weapon would not be seen as a provocation.The State did not produce any evidence to contradict Petitioner's testimony he routinely carried the concealed weapon, and did not deliberately arm himself in anticipation of a conflict that evening.
Very interesting and further reason to carry 24/7.
