I don't think I've ever heard of any CCW holder getting liquored up while carrying. or if they did they obviously never used their weapon.

Exactly.

The law in Virginia is particularly onerous since it bans concealed carry in ANY place that serves alcohol. So if you want to eat somewhere other than McDonalds, you have two choices: 1) go unarmed, or 2) carry openly.

I, like the Patriots in this article, would choose #2 also.

Same here in Ga, only worse. We can't carry openly or concealed in any restaurant that serves any type of alcoholic beverage. Some legislators have tried to get the law changed to allow CC in restaurants which derive less than half of their income from alcoholic drinks, but so far they haven't gotten anywhere.
