Morning HotD. I support his decision to encourage his employees to exercise their constitutional rights. I think his situation is a bit different than mine though. I run a bar now and think that the combination of booze and guns changes the situation. Yes I carry and let the employees carry should they choose, but I also know that all of us drink while on the job and the alcohol impairs a persons judgment. That is something that does not exist in the lawyers office.
In Iowa it is perfectly legal to sit in a bar drinking and carry a loaded gun. You cant be drunk though. Just like drinking and driving you must not carry/drive once you hit a certain level. With driving it is a B.A.C. of .08. When it comes to having a weapon on you the cutoff point is .1. I think that is kinda odd if you ask me. I mean at .08 you are to drunk to drive but you can still carry a deadly weapon. But now I am getting off track on this subject.
