And my thinking is... that's worse than no gun at all. It's in the open. Getting it out draws attention. The person who was the cause of your desire to shoot (why else draw), is really likely to 1: see you, and 2: have a firearm out.
At which point the odds of you being shot go from random, to almost certain.
The other thing (and where I understand, but for different reasons, disagree with jaylake), is that the people doing this are doing it for political statement. I'd really like the populace to make that sort of carry less pleasant (mosty by denying them service in establishments).
Calling the cops on them just confirms, to them, the need to carry. That will, of course, be used to recruit/propagandise.
What I might like to see, if they are not being dissuaded by merchants, I'd like to see a lot of persons of color carrying in the areas they tend to travel.
