You won't be arrested down here if you are not a felon. You will, however, have a very embarrassing confrontation with the police (the severity of which will depend on when and where you are), and you will be asked to leave the premises.
It is not a crime to carry a weapon in the open down here although it is unusual to see one.
I have gone to a restaurant with my family. Forgotten that I was carrying on my belt (it is warm down here most of the year so I usually carry in an ankle holster unless I have a suit on), removed my coat when we sat down to eat. I only realized that I had done this when I went to the restroom and while washing my hands I saw it in the mirror. No one said a word.
I went back and finished my meal.
It also is not that unusual for someone to be armed down here; sort of like putting on your socks.

Where is down here? My CCW permit is FL and good in 25 states currently.
