Assuming hurricanes won't prevent it, I will be traveling from Virginia to the Outer Banks in mid-September. To prevent potentially breaking any North Carolina law, I would like to get some clarification regarding NC prohibited carry locations.
First, let me state this question applies to concealed carry, not open carry. Let me also state I have no problem with others open carrying. However, I am a rather reserved person and do not want to be involved in a potential confrontation with "anti's". One of the "anti's" is my wife; if she doesn't know I am carrying I have already avoided a confrontation.
Anyway, I have reviewed the NC laws regarding prohibited carry, and I am hoping someone can clarify the meaning of two of the prohibited locations.
One of the prohibited locations is "assemblies where an entrance fee is charged"; does this apply to movie theaters?
The other location is "where alcoholic beverages are sold or consumed". In Virginia, beer and wine are sold in supermarkets, 7-11's, gas stations, etc. I don't know how beer and wine are sold in North Carolina, but is there any chance I would be breaking the law by entering supermarkets, 7-11's, gas stations, etc?
Any info on these locations, or any other tidbits of useful information, will be greatly appreciated.
