Holding the phone with her strong hand, while carrying openly and the weapon is on her backside, where it can easily be removed by someone sneaking up.
I'm all for being armed at all times. but some people are not very smart about how they carry their firearms.
Conceal it if you can, open carry it when you need to, but never have your strong hand occupied, seconds matter. And always have the weapon holstered in a way that is easy for you to pull it out, not someone else.
While I agree with you that she should be more careful (we only have a snapshot, mind you), carrying as a woman is especially tricky. Concealing is even trickier. Kudos to her for having the courage to open carry; that alone will deter most morons. More of this image might convince the pedophiles to keep their hands off the kids.
I agree with you, but would also say carrying this was is still better than not carrying at all. Carrying this way is still a powerful Deterrent
60 percent of felons surveyed admitted they didn’t commit crimes if they were aware potential victims were armed. What’s more, 40 percent of the surveyed felons reported being discouraged from committing crimes if they simply suspected potential victims were armed.
But yeah if you were targeted by a criminal, surprise is probably a better indicator of whether you are going to be a victim or not.
