Think something more like walking around Wal-mart, or standing in a line at a Burger King or a bank, and so on. The guy OC-ing will be pretty easily identified and targeted.
That certainly could make an OCer more easily noticed but I still think in a situation where a lunatic walks in and starts pulling the trigger the general meyham of the situation will very likely cause them to totally overlook an open carried gun. Maybe I'm wrong, but it's all just guesses anyway.
In a robbery or mugging situation, yes I think it could make you a more likely primary target. But again, I've never seen data reflecting common criminals specifically targeting an open carrying individual. Common criminals want easy targets. I've also talked to a Utah lawyer who specialized in gun related crime. He made a statement that never once in over a decade of legal work, had he ever heard of a common criminal deciding to engage an armed citizen. They choose their targets based on them presenting an easy target.
All that being said, I still think cc is a better option, just not for the oft times cited "tactical advantage".
