I'm going to Colorado Springs for Christmas, but I only have an Oregon CHL, which is not recognized in colorado. I'm not a big fan of OC, but I'll also be spending some time in parts of town with higher crime rates because that's where my relatives live.
I've been doing some research, and I already know that OC is generally legal in Colorado Springs. I have more research to do with regard to what is legal in vehicles, parks, different types of business, etc.
I lived there a while in the 1990s to about 2004. I was on the receiving end of violent crimes twice when I lived there (one incident would now be classified as a hate crime), and my understanding is that things have really gone south since the recession.
What is the general attitude in C/S right now regarding firearms and OC specifically? I'm not interested in making a political statement or getting "Swatted." I just want to go about my business, abide by local law, but be able to defend myself if need be.
