It's sad that the 63 yr. old woman forgot she had her gun in her purse and embarassed herself and her family. I believe she honestly meant to take it out before she went to the park.
What is sadder is the fact that she feels it's necessary to carry one for her own protection.
Many people are making fun of her or condemming her for carrying it.
Have you not looked at the crime statistics lately. There are very few "safe" areas around any more. Everyday in every major city (and a lot of smaller areas) people are being shot, robbed, carjacked, etc. many times people are being shot at for no reason at all. (malls, schools, etc).
The crime rate in the Orlando area is very high. Maybe she felt it was necessary to carry a gun for her safety in that area. Maybe she carries it for business purposes. If you are used to carrying a gun, for whatever reason,
it would be very easy to forget to take it out of your purse.
