Got 'told on' by a fellow shopper at the supermarket

The wiser course is to maintain situational awareness. The reason we maintain situational awareness is because our responses should vary depending on the situation. The fights we choose when alone should not be the same fights we choose when we also need to protect our loved ones.

Extremism is seldom a wise choice; Barry Goldwater said that extremism in the name of liberty is no vice, but you'll notice his name is missing from the list of US Presidents.

OC'ers know there is always going to be a chance for a negative encounter,especially the OP,.
He chose to OC with his family, knowing this, so he chose the fight.
He seems like one of the OC'ers who chooses to look for the encounters, like so many do.

So he chose a fight while minding his own business, doing something completely legal? And then even made a concession to keep the peace?

That attitude is why we are loosing our rights......

Looks like you're the one that may need a change of attitude.

"Do you mind pulling your shirt over it?"

"Sorry but to do so would change it from open carry to concealed carry and would be a violation of state law unless I have a License to Carry Firearms. Are you asking me to violate state laws to accommodate another customer?"

Thanks. That’s my position exactly

Technically, that attitude is called "being an adult instead of a spoiled brat".

Brats throw tantrums in the supermarket, brats don't care who's around when they get into loud arguments. People break up with their girlfriends or boyfriends at dinner in restaurants because they expect that it will avoid a loud, nasty scene, and they're usually right about that.

There's a middle ground between extremism and passivity. The current GOP is a bunch of losers who will never push back with any real enthusiasm, the current DNC is a bunch of commie freaks who won't stop their demands until they're killed. Try to find that sweet spot in the middle, where you fight when it's wise and you don't fight when the circumstances are such that only an idiot would fight.

Nobody negotiates with a rabid dog. They just put it down. Don't be a rabid dog.

"Do you mind pulling your shirt over it?"

"Sorry but to do so would change it from open carry to concealed carry and would be a violation of state law unless I have a License to Carry Firearms. Are you asking me to [potentially] violate state laws to accommodate another customer?"

I am adding this to my mental repertoire, as amended.

I was not saying you need to jump and scream like a rotz,
Just a simple, ok, I respect your decision, I will leave with my $ would suffice.

Yes, exactly. No need to make a scene whatsoever.

you walking on the beach, wearing a mankini on your 300lb ass is legal, you will get negative responses......
If you can get out of mommies basement.

I would have covered it up for about 30 seconds then pulled the cover back off and gone about my biness.
