Default Just wrote a letter to Buffalo Wild Wing's

Let me know what you think.

It has been brought to my attention that this location now has signage posted prohibiting law abiding citizens who possess federally regulated and government issued concealed carry permits from the ability to defend themselves and their families.

It is appalling to think that a privately owned company feels as though they possess the ability to trump the rights of American citizens and the rights set forth by our fore fathers in the Bill of Rights.

I have been a very frequent visiter to your stores in both Baton Rouge and Fort Walton Beach, FL. If this is company policy or this policy isn't at least given a second thought as to the possible ramifications, I feel I will have to find a new place for myself, my friends and my family to gather and have dinner.

Furthermore, this seems like common sense to me but it may not be so to those who set forth these restrictions. Criminals do not care that you do not want them to carry guns in your store. Criminals will carry no matter what. The only persons who your signage will prevent from carrying weapons in your restaurants are law abiding citizens. Therefore, you will have criminals carrying weapons inside your places of business yet law abiding citizens will not. I'm not sure if you agree or not but this seems rather counterproductive.

I do appreciate a response to this as this is a major issue to myself as well as my family and friends.

Regards,
Jeremy Jouette

I don't think they give a rats ass about that letter of yours.

Because carrying a gun can cause major problem for the company if a robber tries to hold up the place and the law abiding ccw citizen will try to be the hero; all hell can break lose and for some reason the company can be held liable. I'm all about the guns, but it is their policy that they deemed is necessary to create a safe environment for their customers.

there's a reason for everything, so I'm sure it's for the customer's best interest.

You're probably right. That doesn't mean I can't speak my mind.

"accidently" flash your piece in front of the workers and see what happens.
