Watch the guy carefully and let him know you think he is suspicious. Also keep one hand in pocket or in a (somewhat natural) position where a concealed weapon can be reached easily. Most criminals want easy marks who aren't paying attention, and they don't want to get shot. They look for those sorts of signs. A sign I look for is if their hands are visible. If not that's a warning sign.

My father in law says the easiest way to get an intruder out of your house is to let him hear the "shuk-shuk" of a shotgun being loaded. Even the dumbest intruders recognize that sound and will leave immediately.

Looks like the thread is trying to get back on topic.

I've heard from gun packing people before that they can tell who's carrying heat, e.g. at a bar, just by the way they are looked at. I don't doubt that. Occupying your space, a big deterrent to being molested, can be easier I imagine if my finger is on a trigger.
