Senator Doug Jackson told WSMV News that he would introduce a new bill to allow gun permit holders to carry guns into any place licensed to sell alcoholic beverages. This presumably includes restaurants, bars, and nightclubs. Guns could not be brought into "beer bars," which only have a beer permit.
What is less clear is whether owners will be able to opt out, by posting a sign or through some other process. The story suggests that owners will be able to opt out, but Senator Jackson did not address the point on camera.
We also do not know the breadth of the law. Will permit holders be able to carry guns into hotel restaurants, country clubs and venues like Fed Ex Forum and LP Field? All have liquor licenses and serve food, which seems to meet the definition articulated by Senator Jackson.
Watch the story here.
