But which are you MOST likely to run into? I would rather deter a criminal and not have to worry bout my firearm jamming, not drawing fast enough etc.
Good point lol.

Why all the hostility? I started this thread in hopes to get the topic going. You know theres educating people and theres being arrogant about your opinions.
If my arguments (didnt think I was arguing...simply discussing) is "stupid" then dont post here.
And no "we're" not done here...you might be but I still want to hear people's opinions on this and not merely push my own on others.
The "hatred priority" here seems to be yours.

As traveling comes along with the territory with my job field, I will always have a firearm with me. I would never OC on the job, but when it comes to my personal time, I will be thankful to comfortably OC, in small areas that I know won't cause a scene and always with the lady friend, or close friend at that (for LEO insurance). I don't mind sticking my .38 in my pocket holster for the mall. I know, I know, I am giving in to the oppressors! But their are children at the mall and lots of teenagers that hangout for hours and I do not want the extra eyes as I enter the theater or store. I could care less for walking into an open debate with some hot-head and like to keep to my own business.
I do have a question. Does age have a factor in OCing? I am 24 years young and have had my CWFL since I turned of age. But my biggest concern is with being singled out not just by LEOs, but folk who might think I am "unqualified". I am not a flashy dresser, nor do I like to stick out, but being 6'6'', it is hard to go completely incognito with the crowd :lol:
Hah, I'm 24, 6'2" 225lb, and roll with clean jeans and t-shirt, and worn to the ground sneakers. Be right there with ya...

My main reason to oc is for comfort and practicality.
No, no they won't. They will use all the power we allow them to have. Don't consent, but don't resist. Let them know you do not approve of being violated. This can be done very non-confrontational.and they'll get tired of 'running my numbers.'

Handing over your licence and letting them run your numbers are seizures.I certainly won't concent to search or seizure, and stay quiet if they ask any incriminating questions though. Once I get through my first few experiences I'll keep ready to take a firmer stance.
As for the poll, I'd carry how, when, and where I please, but that wasn't an option...
Seems OC deterred at least one crime.
