That PA guy had the charges filed after they decided the videotaping he did was him purposely causing a scene.

I've open carried most of the time over the last 3 years or so. Most in Westminster, last 1.5yrs in Fort Collins. I am after I double check finances finally applying for a ccw just because of the fear/not wanting the hassle of dealing with some panicky californiatard who has moved here or a cop who just doesn't know the statutes. (My boss for example didn't believe "self defense" was one of the legitimate reasons for carrying/carrying in a car etc. Still need to show him lawsuit the guy won against loveland for being detained 2 hours over open carry.)

The one key is don't be all kinds of nervous, checking the position of it riding every minute etc. Don't carry your palm on top of it. If you are doing it right you would almost forget it's even there until you have need for it. Don't be stupid and try to press boundries, I avoid banks because while legal, people get antsy and dumb. Generally if you arn't acting nervous, I'd say at least half of the people around you do not notice(and I think it may be closer to 75-80%, of the ones that do it's regrettable but most assume law enforcement.

I've had a small handful of times when waiting in a line like @ a restaurant a guy ask me about if I need a permit to OC etc. Those have always ended up favorably being able to talk to them a bit and highlight colorado laws.
