Anyone have family/friends who harass, grill and bother you about carrying your concealed weapon?

I have a mother who yells at me anytime i carry and am not working. I also have a friend who argues with me about how stupid I am for carrying a gun, even to the point of name calling and fighting. No matter what I do or say these people do not stop harassing me or asking me if i'm carrying or not. Anyone have people who do this to them? and do you have any remedies for it? This has been going on for 3 months now.

It falls along the same lines as other things. Things that people do not understand always have ignorance toward it, or contempt.

Carrying is your choice not theirs so tell them to FUCK off in a plain and simple way. If you carry a firearm the right way, they never know that you are armed. My friends and family know that I have CCW permits that cover about 38 states. I carry everywhere the law allows. About CARRYING, Just don't argue with them, smile and walk away, it's not any of their business..... No one will harass you if you don't let them.

Ignore your mom, and find a new friend.

PEOPLE ASK WHY?

Why I Carry a Gun

My old grandpa said to me son,' there comes a time in every man's life
when he stops bustin' knuckles and starts bustin' caps and usually it's
when he becomes too old to take an ass whoopin'.

I don't carry a gun to kill people.
I carry a gun to keep from being killed.

I don't carry a gun to scare people.
I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place.

I don't carry a gun because I'm paranoid.
I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world.

I don't carry a gun because I'm evil.
I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the
world.

I don't carry a gun because I hate the government.
I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government.

I don't carry a gun because I'm angry.
I carry a gun so that I don't have to spend the rest of my life hating
myself for failing to be prepared.

I don't carry a gun because I want to shoot someone.
I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and
not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon.

I don't carry a gun because I'm a cowboy.
I carry a gun because, when I die and go to heaven, I want to be a
cowboy.

I don't carry a gun to make me feel like a man.
I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the
ones they love.

I don't carry a gun because I feel inadequate.
I carry a gun because unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am
inadequate.

I don't carry a gun because I love it.
I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful
to me.

Police Protection is an oxymoron. Free citizens must protect themselves.
Police do not protect you from crime, they usually just investigate the
crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.

Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to
take an ass whoopin'.

The only "why" I wanna know, is "why" the hell are you telling them!? Not much point in a CCW if every damn body knows about it. My wife only knows that I'm carrying when I pull it off at the end of the night, and I'll be damned if I'm going to let anyone else know about it. The point of an Ace in the hole is for no one else to know about it.

One of the first things they teach you is to tell nobody you carry!!! Could save your life if your in trouble and somebody says, He has a gun, best if nobody knows but you.
X 2 I do remind my wife to remember to put hers on, even if we are out together. and I always carry.

I would have to say I have been thinking about carrying but,and I know I am going to get shit for this.It would be part time if wife and I were going on a road trip,or leaving work late. I am not looking for any kind of trouble and 9 times out of 10 I am walking away,but if it come to the point someone is threating family I will take a stand to protect them.
