Ok the First article is BS opinion....From the opinion of Crappy Holsters. To the Cops being called...60 examples are not a legit study.
Article two is also Opinion based to a high degree...I like to have the upper hand by people not knowing..I don't want people knowing I have a Gun...I don't like drawing attention to myself, it Freaks out the Weak Willed....All that is subjective opinions based on emotion.
3rd and 4th article is also just reworking of first two talking points again all Opinion Based speculation with Zero science.
I'm not saying the Opinion's are not well Grounded, as I said I don't open Carry either.
And I can post a bunch of opinion based opposing articles as well but I will leave it at one..and Again they provide only opinions zero facts or science.
