Today I saw a sign on the door of the Liquor Barn in Lexington. This was not the usual "No Guns Allowed" sign that Kentucky businesses post to express their desire that patrons be unarmed, but something more. As most of you who live in this state know, such signs do not carry the weight of law, and all they can do is ask you to leave. This sign specifically referenced KRS 244.125, which I did not recognize, as the bulk of related Kentucky law is in three other chapters. When I got home and looked it up, I found that this section was in reference to establishments which sold alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises. I do not remember seeing that they had opened a bar on the premises since the last time I had visited, and I don't believe this is legal anyway.
Tomorrow I will try to find contact information for the management and see if I can get an explanation. In the meantime, has anyone else in the Lexington or Louisville area noticed these signs, and do you have any information to offer?
