Just a bit uncomfortable & bewildered …with where all of this dust-up and foolishness could end up … is the door cracked open for the OCT idiots to march, fully armed, into a Chipotle - and say “we don’t care about your stinkin company policy - you are a place of public accommodation and we have our constitutional rights” …???
and if they do … is the NRA now giving a hint that it will swallow hard and hold its nose and shriek that the constitutional rights of the OCT idiots must not be denied??

  • sort of - you & your little children’s sheer terror at the sight of my semi-automatic rifles swinging around on my back - do not trump my right to parade & frolic where ever I want with my semi-automatic rifles

Well, as it turned out after that first happened, it was mentioned that Chipolte serves alcohol, so they can’t go in there anyway. I wonder if these guys got word on that?

Has he repented since the advent of Viagra?

24

Whew! There for a second I thought the NRA had gone soft.

Second guy from the left wearing the Keep Texas Armed shirt likes to think he is ready for anything. He’s the image of OCT. Baseball cap with extra-curved bill, check. Vandyke beard, important for the Breaking Bad tough-guy image, check. T Shirt with an AR-15 silhouette, check. Ever ready for any threat, his finger is poised over the trigger just like those so’jers in Iraq that he saw on the news 10 years ago.

The OCTopussies sad that they can’t go confront the NRA in their

HQs.

Since when is a hasty, groveling retreat the definition of “clarification”?

Are these people liable for civil suits because of their behavior?

That “safety” part is the old NRA that I was a member of in the 60s when I took a marksmanship course at summer camp.
Today’s NRA is an economic and political organization dedicated to the proliferation of firearms.

How many Open Carry Texas members does it take to get dinner started? Three: two to watch for traffic while the third scrapes it off the pavement.

Did you hear about the Open Carry Texas member who backed off the bus when it got to his stop? He heard someone say they wanted to take his seat.

31

I see an opportunity - for restaurants that specialize in “gun enthusiasts” (I prefer ammosexuals). Guns required, loaded, and locking is optional.

How about El Pistolero Loco, AppleB-52’s, Plunkin’ Donuts, Sub-machinegun-Way, Blood-Red Robin, Wounded Wendy’s, Marie Callender’s Kalishnakov, Bullets over Broadway, etc.

32

If I’m a restaurant owner, why should I assume that someone who is openly carrying a deadly weapon does not want to do me harm? Shouldn’t I take immediate steps to protect myself, by deadly force if necessary?

33

Gee and all these years we’ve been told the NRA was the guys in the big-boy pants. Wrong!

34

Today’s NRA and the NRA of 50 years ago are as different as the

Sexy trendy Abercrombie & Fitch in the malls today & the
stately, unique, exclusive safari outfitters known as Abercrombie & Fitch some 60-80 years ago

Excellent question but his gang and mine drifted apart long ago.

36

Funny, my thought too…

37

Hackeyed apology but still no table for the brandishers and that special arsenal.

38

Open Carry Texas, the Rush Limbaugh of gun nuts!

39

Good, now lets get out there and act like assholes again!

Sub-average goobers out to make themselves feel like BIG people.

Give 'em the old “L” salute!!
