Concealed Carry

[Shorts]

We've gone into a "bar and grill" for dinner on a Friday night, a late dinner - like 8pm dinner once DH finally got home from work. They're still serving food, the bar band started playing at 9pm when the lights dimmed. At any rate, I did not feel comfortable there. There was no 30.06. There was no 51% sign.

I didn't relax until we left.

Was I wrong to carry there?

Depends. Did you check their liquor license to see if it was a 51% location?

The burden of proof is on Us, we have to be proactive in checking. If there's no sign, or a question about the sign posted, it's up to Us to verify their license, plain and simple.

Haven't verified. How do I go about that? Just ask them or can I find out online?

I'll check it out before we go back.

Walk in and ask to see their ABC license.

Haven't verified. How do I go about that?

Walk in and ask to see their ABC license.

Or just call it their 'Liquor Licence'.

It should be displayed somewhere that anyone can read it, look around for a bunch of licenses and such on the wall together. Then look for the one that says "TABC Mixed Beverage Permit" on it.
