The Arizona Senate has approved a bill to allow people with concealed weapons permits to carry a gun into a business that serves alcohol.

The 19-8 vote completes Legislative action on the bill and sends it to Gov. Jan Brewer.

The measure has pitted powerful groups representing gun and bar owners against each other.

It would require bar and restaurant owners who want to ban weapons to post a sign next to their liquor license. Drinking while carrying a weapon would be illegal.

Opponents have said mixing guns and alcohol could cause violence, but supporters argue that people should be able to protect themselves at businesses that serve alcohol.

Good song.

I like that it is up to the establishment not the govt and drinking + carrying a weapon should be illegal.

I think it was Kool Moe Dee.

I remember parties out in the park
With the girlies, rubbing up in the dark
I was smooth, until someone pulled a gun
It was over, they spoiled my fun......

Not many people seem to remember the Kool Moe Dee track. It was actually one of my favorite hip-hop/rap tracks from the 80s.

I'll remember to look for the sign before I go in any bar in Arizona from now on, or near it for that matter.

It was a great track from the 80s. I remember listing to it many times even after my sister ran it into the ground.
