The purpose of “concealed carry” is to enable someone to protect him/herself without having to reveal that you're armed. If you do a poor job of concealment, you can frighten unarmed citizens (who may think that you have criminal intent), and invite unwanted attention from criminals (who will find a way to “get the drop” on you, and take your toy away) and the police. Granted, police officers are more attuned to spotting a concealed weapon than the average citizen, but there are ways to conceal a weapon that even a police officer cannot readily (e.g. traveling in a police cruiser) detect. Does anyone know for a fact that Mr. Attorney wasn't deliberately accentuating his “bulge” in order to intimidate any bad guys who might have eyes on him (or perhaps even subconsciously inviting attack in the hopes he could pull a Charlie Bronson “Death Wish” vigilante stunt)?
