    I don't disagree with that. A guy in Memphis (illegally) carried his gun at a bar, got drunk and got in a fight, and ended up killing a guy. He will be in jail for a loooooooong time.

    I am all for being able to carry in more places, but alcohol makes people do stupid things.

    that is not what the bill says. The bill says you cannot drink while your carrying the weapon. It does not say that you cannot have alcohol in your system. Google the actual bill and read it. Very informative.

    thank you!

    the bill says that you can carry your weapon into a place that serves alcohol UNLESS the business earns more thatn 50% of their sales from alcohol (aka a BAR).

    right, so basically if you've had ONE beer, then end up going out to eat, you cannot carry inside.

    i also agree that you shouldn't intoxicated when carrying but i find it slightly annoying you can no longer have a drink w/a meal.

    Yes you do. And most people would agree. The only legal place I dont carry to is the shower, and thats the only environment I wont put a weapon through on a daily basis. But ill be dammed if its not within arms reach 24/7.
