It's true in areas without "shall issue" laws, that it can vary according to the whims of each police department

When I was living in the Charlotte, NC area a few years back, I used to play hockey at a rink that was in the basement of a shopping mall. The mall was in a bad section of town and we played late at night and the parking garage was known to be dangerous even in the daytime, so I started packing some heat (I love saying that:) in my hockey bag. The mall had a ban on firearms on the premises, so out of curiosity, I looked up what the charge would be if I got caught.

Get this: if caught with a concealed weapon in a place where firearms are banned it was a misdemeanor unless you had a CC permit. It that case it was a felony.

Moral of the story was a CC permit could do more harm than good.
