You've obviously not been following this story. She's carrying open because they denied her permit renewal.
I've got a reason to carry openly , too. It's just not legal here, yet.

This little girl was one of my MIL’s neighbors. NO ONE was armed at that game, or Morgan might still be with her family. They do not know if she is alive or dead, or where her body is.
This is one thing I'm MORE than willing to do “For the Children!”
Quote from the link: "The sheriff revoked Hain's gun permit after she carried her gun to her 5-year-old daughter's soccer game."
Is this the little girl whose Mom had a Missing Children Organization in her home after Morgan went missing, and HGTV or some TV show rebuilt her house?
Because her Mom didn’t want to leave the area, in case the child came back, and wouldn’t know where Mom had moved?
My family lives in Ft. Smith and we had gone out there for a visit. We were headed out to eat at a catfish place outside Alma several years ago and my niece drove me by the house.
Beautiful house!
But, sad...sad.
I’m not against carrying weapons, and I know that there could be 1000 other situations at a kids’ sports game during which a gun would be useful, or even save lives, but what good would a gun have done in that case? The abductor was never actually seen by any of the adults in attendance at the game, which means that a gun or any other weapon that requires the target to be in sight before firing would have been ineffective.
