We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

You will know, and your conscience will gnaw at you for being a criminal until your dying day.
:celebrate
You never know who may be observing you and might discern that you are armed. Look at what happened to the guy snagged at BWI. I'm sure he thought no one could tell. Is up to 364 days in jail worth the risk?
I'd like the restaurant ban to go away too, but until that July 1st come where it becomes legal I will keep OCing.

I don't really see how this is exclusivly an LEO question...
If you are unsure about opencarry, just take a look at the 50+ pages of the restaurant thread. You will see that the vast majority of the time people OC in restaurants without any problems:

We have x-ray eyes and can tell just by looking at you!
But seriously... it is not something we really look for. If you were to be arrested for something else.... maybe. I have not known ANY officer that has charged someone with that.

For those who do not know (and I am sure most here do), up until 1995 when Virginia went shall issue, it was legal for permit holders to carry concealedin Viriginia's restaurants licensed to serve alcohol.
See, e.g., http://www.2asisters.net/va/index.html (left side, fifth paragraph from bottom).

You are correct, .45. My wife and I got our permits under the old law, and it wasn't until "95 that I started to have to carry openly in restaurants. Of course, this is an example of an unintended consequence that had positive effects for us in the long run!
