I'm an Oregon resident with my Oregon CHL, but have to make a trip to Washington tomorrow. I'm aware it's breaking the law, but I'm going to be carrying concealed (I'm not willing to give up my right of self-defense just because I'm going into another state.) I would OC, but I'm travelling with my wife and parents in law, who all disapprove of OC :banghead:. So that leaves me breaking the law, which I'm not happy about, but as the old saying goes, It's better to be judged by 12 than carried by six.
I can find the Washington Statute, RCW 9.41.050, but it just says it's a "Class 1 Civil Infraction." What exactly is that? A Misdemeanor? A fine? I searched some and wasn't able to find the exact definition (maybe my Google-Fu is weak tonight, I dunno).
Thanks for any help you can provide,
