I like your point of view, Thane, and think I will adopt a similar stance.

As a rule I generally try to avoid any talk of controversial personal choices at the work place. Politics, religion, etc. However there was one time when there were just a few of us hanging around the office after hours on a Friday. Somehow the conversation got on guns and after expressing an interest to the topic starter he offered to take me out shooting sometime. At that point I did disclose I owned, but I think it was a safe call even in retrospect. Heh someone else even talked about getting a semi rifle and converting it to fully automatic.

So I guess it's like "First rule of CHL... don't talk about CHL."

Well I'm just glad that there's this internet forum where I can freely discuss related topics w/o fear of persecution.

I'm sure you would generally not have reason to do this but until I actually take the class my mind races with all kind of theoreticals.

The one scenario I could think of where you might do this is if you were at a party or something and group of people were discussing guns, CHL or similar topic. Of course if there was even one person around that seemed anti or I wasn't sure about it would be best to shut up about it. Considering everyone around was gun friendly though would informing them that you were carrying at that moment be a failure to conceal?
