It's worth mentioning that your neighbors directly to the north in Virginia have had restaurant carry for a few years now. Just like in our state, qualifying for a CCW permit in NC indicates a person has already demonstrated a certain level of civil responsibility. The idea that those same responsible individuals will attempt to turn an Applebees parking lot into the OK Corral is a favorite claim of the anti's... so far, nothing could be further from the truth in states that allow restaurant or bar carry.
