I go camping in U.S Forest Service campgrounds adjacent to U.S wilderness areas (maybe backpacking next year?). My typical routine is to take 2 or 3 off-trail hikes per day to fish, explore, take pictures, etc. Occasionally I get negative comments, right in my face, from the anti's such as WHY ARE YOU CARRYING THAT GUN? in a rude (not inquisitive) manner. While tempted to respond "f--- you", I always ignore such comments. When I encounter others at the trailhead, I go out of my way to be pleasant with the hope that they will have a positive memory of someone who carries. Anyone else get these in-your-face comments from the anti's while camping?
 
Say in a whisper loooking arounnd as you do
"haven't you heard big foot has been seen in the area".They will shut up either from fear of you being crazy of or will believe you.Either way you got them.You can add to statement as you see fit to depending on them.
This kind of thing is a ball and can be tailered to any situation.
:D

I'm old and deceitful.
 
Just goes to show how freakin stupid they really are, confronting and armed individual in a remote area.
Let them confront some hop heads tending the old patch way back in the boonies in a NF and see what happens to them.
Natural selection at work.
 
Tell them you heard on the radio that there was a warning of an escaped rapist-cannibal in the area. Authorities were suggesting caution and not to carry fava beans and chianti.
 
Get up right in their face and ask them, "why are you breathing my oxygen?". Seriously, you can't please everyone so don't even bother trying. Just be polite and say that you carry it for protection from animals, the 2 and 4-legged variety and go on your merry way.
