While a number of businesses are welcoming customers carrying firearms, a Louisiana restaurant has taken it a step further – offering an incentive to gun-toting diners.

Bergeron’s Restaurant, located in Port Allen, is offering a 10 percent discount to any patron packing heat, according to local affiliate NBC33.

Wasn't there a restaurant recently that had to retract a 10% off for CCW holders because the state threatened to sue for discrimination?

I seem to remember something like that but I thought it was about saying prayers before eating. They fall into the same disliked category for libs/progs/socialists/commies.

I think you’re right. It was over getting a discount for praying.

However, in this case they can claim the discount is valid business practice, not discrimination. Customers carrying are providing a security function to the establishment, thereby “earning” the discount. Not discrimination at all. ;-)

Yep. The best boudin outside of Acadiana Parish or Teet’s Supermarket in Ville Platte, La. If he ships product, I highly recommend placing an order for some boudin and sausage.

Stop it. You’re killin’ me. Mrs. rktman just got a recipe for some Mardi Gras crawfish cornbread. Now, to get our hands on some mud bugs. :>} We can get them but it just isn’t the same as a long picnic table with some Times-Picayune spread out and and mess of ‘em dumped on top.

Nope. It was offered to folks who said Grace before eating.

I think if it was MY restaurant, I'd probably go ahead and let them sue me and take it all the way to the supremes ...

Still ... I think I would DO it.

“The best boudin outside of Acadiana Parish or Teet’s Supermarket in Ville Platte, La.”

Along with Market Basket’s smoked boudin (in Lake Charles).
