Sometimes good and sometimes bad. Good for this restaurant owner. More should follow suit.

“They had put up a sign that said ‘No Weapons Allowed’ and they were robbed at gunpoint two days later. The convenience store manager was shot,” Floyd shared with WBIR. “And that got me thinking. I lost a whole group of motorcyclists because they thought I didn’t allow weapons. But I believe it’s ok to carry as long as you have a permit.”

“We sell very, very little beer here, but we do offer it. I don’t have a liquor license. I won’t get a liquor license.”

I don't know the liquor laws there. They may not have to have a liquor license if they only sell beer or wine and no hard liquor. That's 100% guess on my part.

Many restaurants in Texas sell beer or wine but not mixed drinks. I wouldn't be surprised if the situation is similar in other Southern states, especially those with a 'shine legacy.

If they sell ANY alcoholic beverages in Texas, beer, wine or booze, they need a liquor license. AFAIK

There are different levels of alcohol license in Texas. You can have a beer and wine license without a hard liquor license.

The intent of the op is to highlight the good that came from being pro carry and posting a sign accordingly. Not to discuss the other states liquor licensing laws.

This is not Texas, but Tennessee. Per the T(ennessee)ABC website:
The Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) issues several alcoholic beverage related licenses, and permits, to qualified applicants. The TABC jurisdiction covers alcoholic beverages with over 5% alcohol content by weight. The TABC does not issue beer permits.
ON-PREMISE CONSUMPTION LICENSES (LIQUOR-BY-THE-DRINK)
Beer permits in Tennessee are issued by the County or City along with food permits.

Ok, then I guess the statement made sense according to TN laws.
