18. I prefer CC to OC, but would not oppose the latter if that was the only option...

left by a particular state. The states can regulate the mode of carry (either mode, or both modes), but they cannot deny both means of carry as this would violate the "...bear arms" portion of the Second, and the incorporation clause of the 14th Amendment. If a state allowed both means of carry, I would opt for concealed-carry as this would be less upsetting to some, and would not be an inducement for more violent and confrontational criminals to take a chance and try to rob me of the weapon.
