I am all for OC. However for me I prefer to CCW. When OC everyone knows your armed, which is a double edged sword. First off it may deter a potential attack. However if a criminal is determined and your in his way, your the first to go. Now I am sure we are going to hear about condition yellow and situational awareness. But even professionals can miss a threat. LEO's sadly get caught up from time to time, and get injured/killed by criminals. If you are CCW you have the advantage of surprise, not to mention you dont stur the sheep everywhere you go. I OC for four years at my previous assignment and had no issues because of the culture of the state, not to mention crime was far less then here.
