This concerns the laws in my state regarding CCW in a bar... it is illegal here, so I will not do it. I ride a motorcycle with a group of friends who do not know that I carry. After riding today, the group went to a bar to eat and play pool. When I saw the guy carding people at the door, I told my friends that I could not go in because I forgot my ID. Then, (unfortunately) the doorman said, "it's fine, I can let you in without your ID" I told my friends flat-out that I am not going in. They asked a TON of questions, asking me if I was a felon, or if I had stolen from the bar, or .... lots of questions. I also will not leave my gun locked in the small trunk in my bike. It's just not safe, IMO. I finally told them I had to leave, but that I'd be back. So, I rode home (15 miles), put my gun in my house, and rode back (15 miles) to join my friends. My friends think I am insane at this point.
Let me add that I was not at the bar to drink. I DO NOT consume ANY alcohol when I am riding my bike. This law in my state, prohibitting firearms in a bar, is so annoying! When I'm riding the motorcycle and my friends go to a bar, my only real option is to leave. I hate it. However, it seems there is no fighting it. The antis would probably think anyone is absolutely crazy for trying to get guns allowed into a bar setting.
What would you have done in this situation????
