if you're asking other people whether you need a concealed carry license, or whether you should carry or no? you should have never even owned a gun, just forget the whole thing and let someone who IS carrying take care of you.
if that's not your question, I don't get what you're asking.

My Ohio concealed carry license expires next month. I am seriously considering allowing it to expire. I have never carried while driving and won't. What I wonder is whether an LEO stopping me would tend to be least nervous 1) if the computer shows that my license had expired, or 2) if I renew the license? In either case I will state right off to the officer that I am not carrying.
Full disclosure: I haven't been stopped since I was 19 (50 ears ago) driving to my job as a Boy Scout camp counselor in uniform. The officer did not say why, but I suspect it was because I probably looked like I was too young to drive. I have never had a bad encounter with any LEO.
I am not arguing against concealed carry; I just believe that I personally don't need it any more.
I appreciate your thoughts; thank you. You don't need to be carrying a gun. Your reasoning is confusing. Are you a Democrat?

Sheep, sheep dog, or wolf.
Decide which one you are. At 70 years old? WTH does age have to do with it. I am 80, never leave home without it, am fully capable of using it if the need arises.

I appreciate your thoughts; thank you. You probably wouldn't be able to get it renewed anyway. In Iowa we need to do it at least 2 and better 3 months before expiration. Ours is for 5 years. Not sure about other states.

Just renewed mine yesterday (expires May 19th, good til June).......3 weeks max for permit renewal. The State mails them out now, no more local picture permits. $25 for 5 year renewal (on time)..........$50 if late. My Ohio concealed carry license expires next month.

My CCW doesn't show up when my license or registration is run but I am supposed to tell the cops if I am armed. Does it even matter in a constitutional carry state?

It's amazing to me the amount of people who submit to the government and ask permission to exercise a constitution right. And they think wearing a mask is the problem.

Seems to me to be, but folks just line up to ask permission from the government without batting an eye.

The last thing you should consider is what deflave has posted. Total bu$h!t. Get your carry permit renewed. Whether you carry or not, is your choice, nobody else.
If you get pulled over, whether you have a permit, or not, or have a gun, keep both hands in plain sight, and tell the cop you have a gun and permit if you do, or just get the info he wants. Just don't go grabbing stuff at random. You will be OK.

Speaking only for myself but if I could know the time and place I/we would be attacked, I just would not be there. But as I am not prescient nor clairvoyant, I carry no matter what. And, Steven 60, I am older then you.  L.W.
