MDA: A victory for gun sense.
Sooooo, MDA now calls guns sense flowing state/local laws which allow people to carry eeevil loaded firearms i public. Got it.
I think al of these restaurants that are going along with this, should put up signs. “This establishment is completely and totally a gun free store.”
My money is better spent elsewhere. FUPB!
Never thought their stuff was that good anyway....
Too bad, I used to enjoy going to Paneras on occasion. They are now on my ever growing list of places, not to patronize.
No problem, Panera.
There’s a Mission Burrito right next door.
Adios.
Do they think law abiding customers are going to have a shootout?
Do they think this will keep criminals from coming in with guns?
Do they think it’s better to wait for the police to show up in the case of a criminal using his gun?
Every time I go in to Panera, I think, ‘the customer service in here is just not smart. THey talk to each other while customers wait. Their food is inferior. IT takes a long time for service. It’s not especially clean. ‘
there’s just something slow about this place.
They’re taking the gonad-free route on this one.
Either put up a sign barring gun owners...or shut-up.
Simple fix. Businesses that don’t like my gun don’t like my money either.
I voted No, doesn’t change my opinion. I went their once, to expensive for what I got, so I won’t be going back. Them allowing guns wouldn’t change that.
Soon, I won't need to dine out ANYWHERE. :)
Well, honestly, not walking around with guns openly visible into a regular store should be someone’s common sense, not the words of a business exec. Sadly, there is less and less common sense in the world nowadays.
Sounds like what Chipotle did... politely asked that people not bring firearms into the stores. But deferred to local laws.
No longer giving my $ to Chipotle, Target or Panera.
Of course, this being the case, since there is nothing preventing concealed or open carry, guests should feel free to carry concealed or open carry.
In other words, their request is meaningless.
And even more so, gun owners should be sure to carry when they visit their restaurants. And since some sniveling, pimply-faced young manager might demand they disarm, they can simply say that they do not cede their civil rights upon request, any more than if they were being asked to leave because of the color of their skin.
“I do not cede my civil rights on request, any more than if you were asking me to leave because of the color of my skin.”
I think I’ll avoid Panera Bread.
I don't carry because of what might happen in your wussy little establishment. It's about what might happen when I'm traveling to and from your wussy little establishemtn.
Sincerely,
Not a Wuss.
Remember Luby’s in Killeen, TX.
Never been to a Panera’s and don’t intend to now.
Businesses that don’t want patrons defending themselves when the occasion arises, become targets for killers, thieves and nhugs. Patrons should go where they are allowed to protect themselves.
I guess Panera bread doesn’t want the business of people who carry. Isn’t that as discriminatory as not baking a weeding cake for a gay couple?
We are a ream - I go where my gun goes. Otherwise I ain’t goin’
