Guards will no longer carry guns at Midtown Panera ("armed" guards not armed)

I don’t think I’d go to a restaurant that felt the need for armed guards. That just screams “crappy neighborhood, get out while you can” to me.

From what I’ve read and heard, being hunted and shot by a lunatic can also make diners “uncomfortable”.

I was in Panera not too long ago with my Ruger concealed on my hip, unaware of this policy. I guess that won’t happen again.

The Panera across from Virginia Tech doesn’t even have a security guard.

I carry my concealed weapon into my local Panera every time I go there. There’s nothing indicating its not welcome.

Perhaps someone can enlighten Lillian about Luby’s in Killeen, TX and what took place there in 1991. Even one alert armed guard might have prevented the massacre. Along with Suzanna Hupp, who was dining with her parents when the shooting broke out. Lillian could learn that Suzanna had left her gun in the car as per the rules, and both her parents were killed along with many others. Perhaps crazy people who kill others should make her as nervous as being traumatized by seeing a guard with a gun. So if the place gets shot up, wonder who will be in line to sue if an injury or death occurs?

"multiple patrons complained to corporate that the armed security agent was violating the company’s own gun policy..."

Isn't that just like a liberal. Tell the peons they can't have guns for self defense while hiring armed security to protect themselves. I think it's good that they are made to play by their own rules.
