Yes it is polite to present your CHL even if not packing.

Yes I probably will if the need arises.

No it is not required by law that you do so.

LEO should not get their panties in a wad if you decide not to since it is not illegal and it should not prompt a confrontation.

Thank you for the lesson. Feel free to correct everyone's spelling and grammar, professor. I am certain you will feel better once everyone here lives up to your academic and grammatical standards.

There really is no reason for any confrontation if one is obeying the law, is there? I do believe that is the point, not my grammar or spelling.

I am relaxed, sitting back in my chair, drinkin' a cup of Joe, hitting the boards.

Just soaking up on some CHL forum therapy.

The "you" was intended for all of the "polite" and "courteous" believers. Maybe I should have used y'all instead.

Irregardless of what you think is polite, no one deserves to be scolded for obeying the law. Polite has not a thing to do with this.

An individual who does not show his CHL if he is not armed is RIGHT, and whether your version of Miss Manners dictates that you be polite and show yours is your business.

Would you expect to be scolded for driving the limit, coming to a complete stop, or for having your vehicle inspected before it expires?

Do you go ahead and tell the LEO that you are not under the influence of drugs or alcohol when you are stopped too? That would be polite, but not required under the law.
