On our local Utah CCW forum, this gets discussed back and forth on a regular basis. I'm neutral - if folks want to OC that's fine (and in this case it's not apparent that he was OCing); the key is making sure that you are on your toes and aware of your environment when you are carrying.

I've found that when I carry (roughly 60% of the time) - I'm much more attentive to who's around me and who's approaching my strong side. I won't even let my wife walk on my right side when I'm carrying.

When I see stories like this, I also wonder what the back story is; what are they not telling us?
