Bronco , carrying and drinking are no more a right than drinking and driving. Both are bad decisions. Both are illegal

Seems that some on here need to refer to the Penal Code prior to posting. The law that governs CHL specifically prohibits carry while intoxicated. Police officers are not. Department policy in most cases prohibit it , as should common sense. As well LEO are not prohibited from open carry. Again most policies state if not in uniform the weapon should be concealed, but the law does not mandate it.
I do not think anyone, CHL or LEO should be permitted to carry if consuming alcohol, note I did not say intoxicated, I said consuming. But I also feel that CHL should not be prohibited from carrying anywhere except a bar.
Just my two cents.
