SB 235 was introduced Feb. 19 by Sen. Brock.

We need to get our voices heard - North Carolinians Against Gun Violence (the state brady bunch) has made it a legislative priority to defeat this bill and have sent emails to people with misleading info.

NCGV's email:

Guns and Alcohol Just Don't Mix!![/align]

Senate Bill 235 proposed by Senator Brock would allow individuals with permits to carry concealed handguns into North Carolina restaurants despite them serving alcohol.


ACT NOW: If you oppose guns in family restaurants and bars we need you to click here to fill out our on-line petition.

Of course NCGV wants to lead people to believe this bill would allow carry in bars, which of course, it does not. But since when did the anti's let the facts stand in their way?

Most bars are small and fall into the 21 foot rule as far as confrontation goes. And these days, most bars serve food along with beverages. So where in the mix does that put bars that serve food also?
