Well This weekend the missus and I went to the Best Buy in Springfield to get her the latest season of Bones. Been there numerous times with no problems so no big deal. I go through the door and start to browse the movies. The guy at the door was,"Excuse me sir" so I go over to talk to him. He starts to ask if I am LEO and is looking nervous at the gun. I tell him no and explain about open carry in VA and the laws. I ask him if I can give him a card and he says sure so I pull my orange VCDL card out to give to him and tell him if he is interested in learning more to go to the VCDL site and this one.
What amazed me is he face went from nervous to calm as soon as he saw the card with VA laws and such quoted on it. He said thank you then I went back to my shopping. Quite handy having some type of documentation on you saying what the laws are when out and about. Now I just need to pick up a lot more of those cards at the next meeting. Between some people in my apartment complex and that I am out again.
