This law doesn't introduce guns to any new places. It just clarifies previous rulings and murky laws. For example, airport carry was already allowed under the previous law, but the city of Atlanta refused to follow the law, despite state law having preemption. This clarifies it. Bar carry was already allowed if the owner permitted license holders to carry. The state claimed that church carry was the same way, though that's not how the law was written. So this new law gets rid of the confusion and more clearly spells out the law, and removes the "opt-in" part for bar carry.

Airport carry is a good thing. I worked at HJAIA for a while. The entire outer perimeter of the airport is a cesspool. I worked from 21:00 to 09:00 and some douche nozzle and his buddies surrounded my truck, and wanted to "wash my windows".

Not suspicious...except it was 02:00.

As stated, it's not necessarily the environment that restricts carry that is an unsavory area, so much as the ingress/egress thereof.

Before enlisting a buddy of mine worked at a bar/restaurant. One evening, after his shift, the bartender of the restaurant was kidnapped at gunpoint, and forced to drain his bank account at the ATM. The shitbirds left him at the bank and took off with his car.

I'll let you take bets on whether the urban entrepreneurs were ever apprehended....

Yup, we saw exactly the same arguments here when CHL laws passed. Funny thing, the crime rate here in Texas has gone way down. Dallas has half the number of murders it did 15 years ago, with a bigger population. I remember when DPD Chief Rathburn was celebrating they had gone below a murder a day for the city. I think it hit over 440 one year.

I liked him, too. He was a good Chief.

In perennially blue Minnesota, carry in bars, churches, and Government buildings, including open carry, has been the law for 11 years without blood running in the streets. Bloomberg was run out of the state on a rail last year.

Allow me to offer a very large tip of the Stetson to the good people of Minnesota!
