But I'm assuming you are talking about in public locations where a CCW would apply. Here in Georgia I could carry a firearm into a bar (open or concealed) but the bar can deny you too (which is their right). But if I even have 1 alcoholic beverage I'd be in trouble. What kind of trouble, I have no clue.

Actually in GA you CANNOT carry in a "BAR", if you try you will probably be arrested violently The law was recently changed to allow carry in a "RESTURANT" that serves acohol (was prohibited until last year with the change). It is against the law to consume alcohol while carrying concealed or otherwise in a public venue. Before, that law stated that the firearm HAD to be concealed to carry in public, now it can be carried openly from what I understand. Personally I don't like to advertise that I'm carrying. You still cannot wear one in any govt. buildings. I don't thnk you need a permit now to have a loaded firearm in your vehicle, before it had to be unloaded without a permit. Those were the major changes in GA laws recently.
