I think what he is saying is Minimal attention, not so much natural. The art of surprise is our biggest weapon. Criminals not knowning whom is carrying a gun gives us the slight up at hand. They will think twice before robbing and looting our person/homes

By the time a BG is attacking me, I hope he's already well aware that I'm armed.
dojoman:223996 said:I have no issue with open carry. I'm sure areas where people OC there is little to no crime. However, for the areas that don't allow it or are "we fear guns" CC is our best defence.
But I will say this, if you happen apon a criminal in the act or they see with the gun are you.......feared and left alone..... Or seen as a threat and Should be attacked? That is just an idea.
I'll end with the simple fact I am All For Carrying, PERIOD. Be that OC or CC. This topic was nothing to do with OC so I responded in that of CC. Hope this answers the attacking questions you all presented.

I agree. Debates I'm all for. As far as how surprising a BG that I'm carrying that is many times more in depth then one answer. I'd like to believe that if they just pull a knife and not expecting me to have a gun, I'd be able to "surprise" them that way. That's assuming they don't come from behind me. Sadly there are criminals that don't care and would attack their own mother or police. I know carrying is not a full out protection, its just a advantage. Concealing would help if like a robbery of a store or restaurant and I don't want to get involved, but if I'm OC and the BD sees it I probably be Forced to act instead of having the choice not to. But its only one scenario of course
Last note: we are all on the same team. (OC and CC) stop turning this into some Football game or Red Corner/Blue Corner crap. Both sides have Pros and Cons, and I know you agree there. So instead of insulting and attackin one another (bc we have enough criminals to worry about w/o eachother) let's have civil non threatin insulting intelligent talks.
