Remember,
Legally, concealed or othewise, drawing a weapon without due cause, along the lines of defense of self or others is a criminal act. There may be exceptions for training or similar, but they also apply equally to concealed and open.
The people who may open carry where not prohibited are exactly the same as those who can concealed carry. The conditions where they can legally remove it from the holster are identical, concealed or open. Everyone who has a CHL/LTC as part of the class is reminded that they are fully liable for every bullet they shoot. Even if they are justified in shooting someone who is stabbing their wife, if they miss, and injure or kill someone else, they are fully liable criminally and civilly for the injury or murder of the innocent bystander.
Iām really not understanding why the simple status of visible or not matters so much, or what exactly else they think changes.
