Texas wants guns in bars? I’m not so sure I like that idea. Bars are supposed to be a little rowdy. How can people be rowdy when there’s people packing iron? How do you yourself get a little rowdy when you yourself are packing?

Answer: You don’t. In the 9 states that prevent people from carrying in *bars*, they prevent you from carrying in any establishment that serves alcohol. That means that you cannot eat at a majority of restaurants if you choose to be armed.

The law that just passed in Tennessee (to join 40 other states that allow people to carry where they serve alcohol) requires that if you carry there, you are not allowed to drink alcohol.

Don't get rowdy:
