1. They should support
intelligent laws that work for real people insteal of some obtuse ideologue.

Partisan cheerleading doesn't help.

11. It's less "guns in bars" and more "guns in applebees."
Ya see, the thing is that some states made it impossible to carry and go out to eat because most restaurants serve alcohol, so people that did carry would be forced to leave their firearm in the car before they went in. The laws do not permit people to drink while carrying, only to carry in establishments that serve alcohol.

4. Can criminals have concealed guns in bars? If so then we all should.

6. Democrats should support laws which combat crime while not imiting the freedom of law abiding people
Democrats should choose liberty over "feel good" laws which do little to actually prevent crime.

8. Sure, as long as the person with the CCW is not drinking ...
There is such a thing as a designated driver and they save lives.
