I'm not sure. (I never said it was a wise idea, nor that I supported it.)

It most certainly IS the bartender's duty to decide who can and cannot drink, that's why they're required to make a determination whether a patron is "visibly intoxicated"; because the bar can be held legally liable. Oh, and I thought we were talking about open carry, which doesn't require a CCW permit.
