Funny that those hypothetical situations never actually happen.
It seems to me that if someone is going to rob a place where an open carrier is shopping, odds are high that the criminal will never even notice the guy with the gun. If the criminal does notice the guy with the gun there's a good chance he'll just decide to come back later or try a different store.
The vast majority of the public doesn't ever notice an openly carried pistol. Throw in the adrenaline and target fixation that a robber is likely dealing with, and he'd probably never notice if you had two heads let alone a holstered pistol.
