Does anybody carry while at church?

[Guest GLOCKGUY]

I did the big questionable deal myself last night. we went to a high school play that was held at the local college and yes I went heeled. I wore a long tailed shirt to conceal my Kahr CW9 in it's Bianchi holster. You never know in a big crowd like that if some moron will take the gathering as a place to vent some aggression. I just feel that if something were to happen, I want to protect my family and other innocent folks. Does anyone know about carrying in a wal mart or a super market that sells alcohol? what is the law for that? I believe the law is going to change for CCW at bars and such and I don't know if that is a good idea or not. If you mix alcohol and firearms, who knows?

wal-mart is fine. they dont sell alcohol buy the glass you cant consume it there. and your suppose to carry at wal-mart the first day you get your handgun permit. And yes it is a good ides to be allowed to carry in restaurants that serve alcohol CHP will not be allowed to drink. why do you not know if this is a good idea ?????????????????

The law if, it changes, specifically prevents the mixing of alcohol and handguns. You can not drink one drop while armed and in a place that serves alcohol for onsite consumption.

I understand the new possible law about no consumption if you carry, I don't plan on being in a bar anyway but, there will be, and everyone knows this, some person with a carry permit and a weapon on their person that will consume and get stupid. Then what? I think that this is too big a gamble to take. I know there are folks that will be in bars and consume alcohol without carry permits and they will and do carry weapons now. I guess if you are the designated driver you should be the one to carry. I would imagine that if a shot rang out there would be several rounds headed in the perps direction in a hurry.

People who are stupid are stupid, regardless of laws. Look at the thread on the Colbert Report and see Steelharp's comment. There are gun is bars every night of the week. And very seldom does harm come from it. The people who are responsible will continue to be responsible. The people who are idiots will continue to be idiots. No law yet has prevented stupidity.

And permit holders have shown themselves overwhelmingly to be responsible people. That is a fact we have to pound over and over again. The number of crimes committed by holders is miniscule compared to every other segment of the population.

then what. He will lose his gun permit and go to jail. and if there is a guy out there that will do this how do you know hes not doing it now.99% of law abiding citizens with their hand gun carry permit obeys the laws. and their is 30 states that allow it now and has not been a problem with it yet so i think the law abiding citizens in TN can handle it to

Agree 100%

50% of the persons that come thru my course have carried for years, they are just now wanting to get legal.
