Waffle House continues company policy to ban permitted concealed handguns

I’ll get my waffles at IHOP.

Won’t go to the Waffle House (aka IMSHOT). Not worth risking the kids because of some crackhead or gangbanger.

Our families carry, legally, and with combat experience in two wars.

“You want bullets with your burgers”?

I would have never have known this. I have seen a few people sitting at some of the Waffle Houses near me with an open carried weapon. Strange.

Sort story. My wife and I went to see “The Darkest Hour”. We get there and she asked” are you carrying”. Yes. “I think the theatre is a gun free zone. I told her then I guess we go eat instead. It wasn’t and the movie was great then we went and ate. Gun free zones get people killed. They can do what they want, I don’t like Waffles that much.

In Texas, we had the Luby’s (restaurant) shooting in 1991, killing 24 people. Luby’s, rather than sticking their heads in the sand like Waffle House (without their stuck-up prune waitresses, but I digress) instead led the way for concealed carry. In fact, one woman who was there (and not shot) said that she left her gun in her car, because she could not legally take it in - otherwise she would have.

I’d rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6.

You must really like Waffles.

"Gun free zones get people killed."

Yes they do. A local body shop took down their no-guns-allowed sign when I told them they were too stupid to be trusted working on my wife's car. She's a good, repeat customer.

LOL....I actually do, but as I said in my first post on this, I wouldn’t be found in a Waffle House.

The Woman you are speaking of escaped, but both her Parents were Murdered in cold blood. Her Mother was holding her dead Husband when the Murderer came back around and shot her point blank.

She had left her Gun in her Car parked outside.

She testified to a Gun Control Senate Committee with that sleaze ball Schumer looking at her like she was crazy.

At least that’s what I took from looking at that smirking Son of a Bitch.

[Equine1952]

My favorite business places are where everybody can carry. I hope everyone is. It helps me relax. Wonder why no one shoots up a gun show or gun range?

[Bob434]

Sue them for creating an unsafe place to eat

[Ronald_Magnus]

The one and only Waffle House my wife and I ever ate at was a little ways west of New Orleans near the interstate and it was the filthiest place I’ve ever been in.

Well, that settles it. The food at Waffle House causes brain damage.

[BobL]

Wow, thanks for the info. Unreal regarding Schumer.

I admit to being pretty biased when it comes to Chuck the Schmuck. He just had that smirk on his face that makes me want to punch the guy.

I’m sure somebody else would look at that Video and think good old Chuck was just being attentive to the Woman’s Testimony. Of course that person would be Hillary...

That holds true for private property. Restaurants and such, however, are places of "public accomodation". Remember?

We were all forced to accept this asinine notion, when it came to smoking and/or tobacco use. Therefore I see no reason for anyone to suddenly reverse course and now try to claim private property rights with respect to concealed carry. F 'em.

[Garth Tater]

"We were all forced to accept this asinine notion..."

And yet here you are advocating for the further violation of property owners' rights using the very same asinine notion.   Well, I guess if that's how you want to rationalize your lack of respect for property rights that's your business.

Luckily for all of us, this country was founded on other principles.

"The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence.” – John Adams


“Government is instituted to protect property of every sort; as well that which lies in the various rights of individuals, as that which the term particularly expresses. This being the end of government, that alone is a just government which impartially secures to every man whatever is his own.” – James Madison

Does Sambos count?

Many people will know to ignore the ban.
