Often while OC'ing I get a lot of inquisitive looks. The bolder people come up and comment or question me about my firearm/carrying of. Without going into a diatribe about my rights as Virginia resident to OC, I'll gauge whether or not they're for or against before Ibegin to answer their inquiry. Most of my encounters have been positive and often times enlightening for the individual who asks. Often times I'll answer with" I'm permitted by law to carry" which kills the do I have a permit to carry question(which happens to be the most asked.) This will either confuse or satisfy the person long enough to keep on about my business. The "self-defense" answer is good, but I feel it leads to more questions. I don't mind having a conversation about why I carry, the law pertaining to, etc., when I have time. Also, I don't like to just give outaccessible info/advice as to what you can and can't do. Any law-abiding residentcan OC in VA, but you should learn about thison your own to determine whether you trust yourself to carry in public. Any ideas or suggestions?
