I would never frequent a restaurant if I knew their employees were packing heat. The employees at these places are much scarier than the clientele. Do you really want the pimply-faced teenager serving your burger to be carrying a magnum? No thanks.Yeah, I'm with you. I'd rather they were dead. They disgust me. And that makes them less than human.
And if they're not teenagers, they're slack-jawed rednecks compensating for inadequate manhood. They should die, too.
Just so we know the mindset of those who don't trust us...

ReplyDeleteDavid, you're on a roll.
ReplyDeleteKeep it up!
I'd go there in a heartbeat, since I know the likelihood of them or me being robbed while dining there is almost nil. As long as the gun is on/around their hip or under the armpit and not in their hand, WTF do you have to worry about - unless you want to try assaulting them or robbing the restaurant.
ReplyDeleteThere are pimply-faced teenagers serving quite honorably in our armed forces RIGHT NOW who I trust with a gun FAR more than almost ALL politicians, but especially those who believe and fight for gun control (which has nothing to do with controlling crime and only controls law-abiding citizens).
This IDIOT named "supersleuth" is a MORON.
Kent! LOL
ReplyDeleteGreat point. It's funny how people deride us "youngins" for being ... i don't know, under some sort of nebulous age you have to reach in order to "be responsible".
I'm completely within my rights to open carry a firearm. If a restaurant owner wants to kick me out because of it, THAT IS THEIR RIGHT. They have property rights at their restaurant, I don't. But that certainly means I won't ever be going there again.
Here's the problem: if it's concealed, how are they going to enforce their policy?
ReplyDeleteLike I say, it's legal chaos. The government apparently supports both a right to arm and a power to disarm, and both may be in effect in the same place, at the same time.
I was also the pimply-faced teenager at one time. This may come as a surprise to some batshit-insane-invisible-spiders-crawling-on-the-face-paranoid hoplophobes, but my primary concern was not making the customer upset and getting chewed out by the boss. It... never really occurred to me that grabbing my shotgun from the car and shooting someone was a viable alternative.
Fixed it for you:

Once at an IHOP in Orlando, a chubby lady friend bumped up against my CCW 1911 in the booth. I explained to her later what and why it was. She was in disbelief, of course assumed I was a crackpot. 3 weeks later, said IHOP robbed by 3 men in ski masks, broad daylight, register AND customers.
