Here is San Diego I dare say you would get a reaction at least at the hospital and police station. Maybe not shopping but as to church, reaction or not I feel it is common respect to leave it off. Interestingly enough we have had a few groups of what they call "open carry" walking around in public with handguns on hips. According to that "open carry" law it can be done if the weapon is not loaded and the ammunition is apart from the gun. The police may stop them to check if they are loaded but no tickets or arrests. This is causing a lot of talk and upsetting many people. I was taught if I carry a weapon it best be loaded and I best be ready to use it else it may end up a suppository. That includes pointing a knife at someone or any other sort of weapon.
