Yes. Otherwise what's the difference between them snatching my purse with a gun in it as opposed to not having one in it?
However if I was wrong, I apologize.
Read it again!!
They are referring to carrying the gun in a vehicle.
If it is in plain view, you are OK - if it is concealed in the vehicle it must be broken down.
The only restriction for CCW is that you cannot be under the influence of alcohol.
If someone grabbed her purse, that could feasibly have been a bonanza for a thief, and could possible resulted in a gun making it's way to the street.
Most women I have ever seen shopping usually keep their purses with them, even when accompanied by children.
Show me the part where it states you can carry a loaded firearm concealed, into a store or place of business.

No different than a gun kept in your car or your home, also frequently robbed. We should not be held responsible for the criminal acts of others.
What about if someone steals my car and uses it in a crime (happened)? Or kills someone with it? Am I to be held responsible? No.
If you leave your keys in your unlocked car and a child steals it for a joy ride crashes it and is killed, are you responsible?
Another reason to never own a glock.
Not my point at all.
You obviously are clueless about handguns, readiness, and common sense.
Except the assumption was that it was "unattended".. whats unattended? If she has her her head turned and is an arms length away from the purse.. is that unattended?
And you know what.. you could be carrying your pistol on your hip, and slip and fall and have it not retain... and now its on the floor for someone to pick up. Guess that would be your fault right? Irresponsible you? Please.
Crap happens. Accidents do happen. You cannot prepare for every eventuality. It just that people have a much higher standard with firearms than they do with just about anything else. Which is the irony.
what happens if I'm caught? I immediately leave, and if the FedEx people try to hold me there they're committing unlawful imprisonment which is a felony and I can use reasonable force to escape...
I know the law very well.
If you have actually done this - carried a gun onto premises clearly marked "no guns allowed" - well, that's pretty rude and obnoxious of you, isn't it?
Why? It may seem so but if you extend it to other things that a business owner might object to, it seems more understandable.
If I express political opinions that a business owner doesnt like, he can ask me to leave. In general, I dont do so in public
I dont allow a business owner an opinion on anything else in my purse...not my cell phone, my mini-Bible (ok I dont carry one but I could), my tampons, or anything else. Why is my concealed firearm any of his business?
And before you say it....politics and opinions have caused more aggression and death than guns.

My point was that folks get all upset with a single gun incident, but ignore large deaths in other situations.
The disparity is quite relevant, as anti-gun folks pounce all over one incident and cry and flail their arms to utilize the incident.
My point was also that lack of due diligence in any situation can have disasterous results due to a number of reasons, which is also correct.
Perhaps because I have kids and have been around toddlers and have treated many a toddler that got injured. it happens in a blink of an eye.. and you don't often see it coming.
This lady didn't put a gun in the kids hand. She had it in a concealed carry purse.. which means that it was not open for the kid to even see it. He had to 1. open the concealed carry section..2 be able to get the gun out or in a position to shoot.. 3. Operate the trigger and have the gun in the direction of his mother..
that's a pretty extraordinary circumstance...
The problem here is that the assumption is that the kid got a gun.. and that equates to irresponsibility and stupidity. And I think that's a faulty assumption.

I guarantee that if a parent allowed a toddler to be in control wheel and someone died, I would be equally as pissed off if a parent allowed their toddler to access a gun and someone died. YMMV
The tampon can't kill anyone no matter how much you want it to.
If you leave your keys in your unlocked car and a child steals it for a joy ride crashes it and is killed, are you responsible?
However it's unlikely such an incident would've made the news outside that persons town
Try googling it.
Did you not just explain that "child proof" caps are often ineffective? Now you seem to assert that a mere zipper should have been reasonably expected to prevent access to the gun. That is, indeed, inherently irresponsible.
If it is a two year old toddler, hell yeah!!!!!
Not only would you be responsible, you would have CPS crawling up your butt trying to find out how your 2 year old escaped from your supervision long enough to find an unlocked car with keys in the ignition, is there long enough to figure out the ignition and emergency brake and reach the gas pedal.:lamo
