I've started to keep a Ruger LC9S handy in my truck at all times (legally), and actually have it in my pocket most days while on my rural property. One can open carry here in NC, but no one does. I know I'll never "ask" permission via a CCW though...the whole concept is foreign to me.
Twice about a month ago I had two seperate friendly encounters with LEO on my urban neighbor's property after he called them about some lowlife H addicts he had hired to do siding. I had the Ruger in my pocket and told them so upon their arrival...non-issue. I told them both I knew I was illegal, but didn't want to open carry my Combat Commander and get folks (neighbor's kid) alarmed. When it comes to personal safety and protecting one's self or property, imo...you do whatever is necessary...and asking permission just isn't part of the equation. But that's just me...
