A Brazilian steakhouse has apologized to law enforcement officials in San Antonio, Texas, after a manager asked an armed officer to leave the restaurant.

The incident took place on Saturday at the downtown San Antonio location of Fogo de Chão, during which the manager reportedly requested the police officer leave because of his gun.

"A law enforcement officer who was dining at our San Antonio location recently was asked to leave the premises by our staff because he was carrying a firearm," the restaurant stated in a message posted to Facebook.

Why hasn’t the manager been fired? That is the first step in the company apologizing. No one can claim ignorance in behavior like this.

In San Antonio, those guns are good for whacking surly bartenders.

What a truly stupid shout-out statement to make on FB & the target audience is? This deserves a boycott!

Your average cop hates the fact Americans enjoy their 2A freedoms.
Confiscations, arrests, tickets whenever possible, searches, siezures...
For a millisecond this one knows what it’s like to be an “American.”
And once again everyone acts as if every cop is a hero...

Me too, probably one of the best chains I’ve eaten in. Even had 50th anniversary dinner there. Don’t let one leftist fruitcake void a fantastic culinary experience. Those asshats are everywhere...some if them probably in your “church.” surgically remove them without killing the whole body.

You experience a different America than I do.

In the America I experience, the average cop approves of armed Americans and supports the Second Amendment.

Several surveys of police officers support that version of America.

As a former LEO I find your comment ignorant, insulting and, I assure you, absolutely WRONG.

Y’all need to go to Tex’s Star Grill on Rufe Snow in North Richland Hills, TX. Concealed carry is encouraged there.

I’m sure I’ve met many more cops than you have. And I can tell you that you are wrong. But that won’t matter to you. You’ll just go on being wrong.

“As States expand gun rights, Police object...”

“Police Chiefs oppose concealed carry reciprocity...”

These are just headlines from the past year or so. Google ‘em.

Again and again, decade after decade, it’s the same. PDs IMPLORING Americans, lobbying politicians, engaging PR firms...

To strengthen gun control for civilians. (People without badges.)

Yes there are a handful of officers such as those in my family who support 2A freedoms, but there is no question about what side police leadership has been on since I was a boy.

I do not see how the fact you may or may not have "met many more cops" has anything at all to do with the fact that police departments, chiefs, sheriffs, police organizations, etc., etc., nationwide are almost (almost) completely unified in a concerted, focused, public, national stance against expanding concealed carry rights and citizens' gun rights in general.

Police Chiefs, police "leaders" are political animals, appointed by politicians or hired by politicians.

They support the politicians ideas or they lose their jobs.

The idea that police oppose an armed citizenry is pushed and magnified by the media. (surprise, surprise!)

You are correct about the headlines. We are lied to regularly by the media. It is how they have controlled the nation for 50 years...

And then, there is Portland, OR, right across the river. The surrounding counties don't respond to Portland PD requests for assistance. I've bought two Chicago cops. There ARE exceptions.

I knew that was going to be your argument. And it’s incorrect. While police unions and fraternal organizations that have no real power put out press releases calling for gun control, it’s purely political. You only see the press releases that are anti-gun because that particular area is a democrat stronghold. The vast majority of cops on patrol respect the 2nd Amendment and like seeing law-abiding citizens exercise those rights. What we DON’T like are idiotic rallies where dumbasses strap AR-15’s to their backs and stand around with Don’t Tread On Me flags.
