Concealed Carry Permit
 

Time to renew my permit. After the amendment was passed for gun ownership is it still necessary to have a permit?

To own, no. To carry, yes.

You can carry a gun around in a holster all you want as long as you are not a perceived threat to the public. If you want to keep it in your pocket you need to have a permit.

Correct
Although, permit or not you can not carry in a bar, school, federal Bldg, church, or any retail establishment who post a "no guns allowed" sign.

Or a venue that charges for admission.... movie theatre, preofessional wraslin match, football game, basketball game, roller derby....etc.

paid venues a no? wow. not even movie theaters? I wasn't aware of that. Glad to know

Don't quote me on that I'm not 100% sure. I was listening to spokseperson for the LA State Police talk and she mentioned it but I never looked fully into it.

When I get this stack of papers knocked down on my desk I'll look.

There's nothing states about paid venues. Although, these places may have signs posted.

You are allowed to CC at a paid venue as long as alcohol is not sold.

There's not to many places in Louisiana like that. :beer:

I wonder if paid venues include charter boats? I've almost always carried on charter boats (without bothering to ask), but in hindsight, I don't think I've done it in Louisiana.

I wonder how the captains feel about this. Would you be offended if you found out a properly licensed paying customer was carrying on your boat without asking?

Hell, if it were my boat I would encourage open carry. Good way to ward off the Potlickers and Figure 8ers! :smokin:

Thanks for clearing that up.


What about a fair? Where food and beer is sold but you don't have to admission?

What about on bourbon street?? Since it is open container everywhere?? I heard you cannot because its considered a parade? Is this true??

I have never understood a business posting a sign that says "No concealed weapons" because to me that's asking to be robbed, if I owned a business I would want people packing just for that one time some idiot tried to pull somethin stupid

Understandable, but doesn't mean the owner/employee inside isn't carrying.

I just took the class and our instructor talked about all these places. According to him u can carry at a parade it's just highly recommended not to. As far as bars no, but other places that serve alcohol such as restaurants you can carry as long as u don't sit at the bar. This is what we were told anyways.

If it is concealed and you keep it that way how would they ever know. Unless you had the need arise to use it and then maybe they would be understanding?
