This is ridiculous. Drinking and guns are NOT a good combination.
Quote:
Earlier this month, Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell (R) signed legislation allowing “concealed carry permit holders to bring loaded handguns” into establishments that serve alcohol. The law allows permit holders to carry guns in restaurants, “as long as the holders do not consume alcohol.”A leading Virginia gun lobby is now arguing that the law unfairly stigmatizes gun carriers as second-class citizens because there is an exception that “allows law-enforcement officers and commonwealth’s attorneys to carry concealed weapons and consume alcohol.” Philip Van Cleave, leader of the Virginia Citizens Defense League, complained, “We’re not allowed to drink, but they (law enforcement officials) can.
If there is an exception for cops and other law enforcement officers to carry the guns and drink then it should apply to everyone. We are not meant to be second class citizens to our overseers.
I think a bar is a place that one might really have need of a firearm to protect one's life if things got out of hand. We know the criminals and low-lifes will have them so law-abiding citizens should be allowed to have them as well.

Are you, joe citizen, required to carry 24 hours a day as are most police officers?
Once again the title is wrong. It wants to make it legal to allow people to have their guns with them when they go into some place that serves alcohol. Geez like Chili's,Red lobster,Fatz cafe, ya know steak houses.Hell even pizza hut!
