125. i totally agree
it's like in the movie "they live" when the guy first puts on the glasses and sees what's REALLY around him. even after he takes them off, he is more aware of stuff he never noticed before.

it is true the reason i notice the bulge is because i LOOK for it, and due to my training and experience. the vast majority of people do walk through life in condition clueless. they are just very unaware of their surroundings.

i had the EXACT same experience when i first started carrying. i was always worried that if ANY bulge showed in ANY position (like bending over or whatever), that people would start pointing and be like "oh my god".

total unfounded fear.

and in regards to condition "clueless" or condition white, as it's commonly called. imo, if anybody is carrying concealed, they have a duty to always be condition "yellow". iow, aware and cautious. if you are going to carry a gun, you have the affirmative duty to be aware of your surroundings, and of your own actions.
