Georgia's gun murder rate of 3.77 per 100,000 residents isn't too peachy. It's tied with Tennessee in the Brady rankings, with 8 points and a tie for 22nd by state.
Shooters can carry their guns into restaurants, but, they can't drink while shooting there.

Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue likes guns and geezerjocks. This month, he gave the NRA another popsicle.
“With Perdue’s signature, restaurant patrons will be permitted to carry a firearm, but would be barred from drinking while doing so,” reports the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “Violations would be a misdemeanor. Concealed weapons will now be allowed in state and local parks. Guns in purses or under jackets will also be allowed on public transportation.”
