Spencer Tracy, Sidney Poitier, and Katharine Hepburn. Great movie, but I'm not sure how it could be similar to this thread. It's been a while since I've seen it.

Would you openly pass gas at a friends house during a social or business gathering? Not the best analogy, I admit. But hopefully it gets the point across. There are some things, that while perfectly legal, are just plain rude.
Is it also rude then to enter into another person's business without asking for their permission to carry? Maybe not a big store like Walmart or Home Depot, but what about smaller businesses like a barber shop or antique store.

I don't take kindly to those that carry in my home without first notifying me and getting my permission. (My close friends with CHLs already have permission to carry anytime in my home, as I do in theirs.) And in turn I don't carry in someone else's home without doing the same.

Now, I live in DFW and as a result of various social and business relationships there are often people I don't know or know only slightly that come into my home. And I often enter others homes under similar circumstances. There are also people that are anti-gun or just not comfortable with others carrying in their home. ( I don't have to agree with them on this issue to do business with them or enjoy the occasional social event.)

Regardless of what the law says, I'll control what goes on in my home and will grant others the right to do the same in their home. Outside of that, I'll carry where ever I'm legally allowed without regard to what others think.
That starts to let a lot of people know that don't need to know. If you're okay with that then that's your choice. Over the years the number of people that know I carry has expanded, but is still somewhat small and usually limited to other CHLs. I will often wait until they make some comment indicating they carry or they just flat out say it. Sometimes, even then, I don't reciprocate that I do and am at that very moment.

Re: CC at private residence

IIRC, Louisiana is the same way, but there is no such requirement in Texas.
