A uniformed officer carrying his service weapon was asked to leave an Outback Steakhouse restaurant because it is a designated “gun-free zone.”
Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency officer Andrew Ward went to Outback Steakhouse to have dinner with his wife Friday evening, he wrote in a public Facebook post.
Ward said in the post that a manager approached him and requested that he put his gun in his truck. Ward told the manager that he could not because he was in uniform and had to have his weapon on his person.
The manager left to make a call, Ward writes, and then returned to ask Ward and his wife to leave because Outback is a “gun free zone.”

You have to learn this kind of stupid, no one is born that way.
I read a posting in a local paper about someone refusing to patronize Buffalo Wild Wings because they have a posted gun-free zone sign on/near the door.
If I see a uniformed LEO in a restaurant, I feel safer. Is there something wrong with me?

A big AMEN to that. I see that mistake everywhere. It’s the high level 40 thousand feet consultant CEO attitude of hiring “smart” people. I say hire people who know their sh!t. Hire someone who knows food and service to run a restaurant not a “smart manager”.
Texas Roadhouse has a version of that if there is one in your area.
Sonic milkshakes are great!....................
Sorry, but you're a day late and a dollar short.
As they should be. I applaud their consistency. It's a stupid rule, of course, but public servants should be no exception.
Texas Roadhouse I like. They have a good NY strip sirloin with baked potato not some crappy rice medley. LOL!
Outback is being gutted in the Facebook posts.
Cleveland, TN? I could understand demented liberal logic trying something like this in Memphis, but East TN? Idiots!
““Well, I’m going to keep my gun and order a steak, so you might as well call the police. “
Any cop in such circumstance is aware there’s a higher probability of being served a meal with a side of kitchen spit.
Yes, in the latest “Crocodile Dundee” movie, he trades his knife for a nerf-bat.
I wonder id the other customer who was “Scared for her life” actually exists? This sounds like an opportunity for all the local LEOs to have a group lunch there.
Floridian. Outback Steakhouse was created by a couple of Miami guys, as I recall.
“Sonic milkshakes are great!”
The two fags in their commercials agree!
I ate at the Texas Road House in Dallas. Good food, although it’s quite noisy.
Well, then, if there is an armed robbery with a hostage situation, the police cannot respond.
After all, Outback is a gun-free zone.

Do Game Wardens Have the Same Powers as Police Officers?
If you live in or have traveled to an area frequented by outdoor enthusiasts, you may come across a game warden, a local state or federal official tasked with enforcing the laws regarding hunting, fishing, and wildlife conservation.But what other powers do game wardens have? Are game warden's law enforcement powers limited to issuing citations for hunting out of season, or can they enforce other criminal laws such as DUI?
Do game wardens have the same powers as police?
Can a Game Warden Arrest Me for DUI?
Although a game warden is generally concerned with enforcing laws regarding wildlife, in most states a game warden can, and will, cite you for violation of other laws, such as driving under the influence.In Texas, for example, the Texas Parks and Wildlife code states that Parks and Wildlife Department officers "have the same powers, privileges, and immunities as peace officers" and "have the same authority as a sheriff to arrest, serve criminal or civil process, and require aid in serving criminal or civil process coextensive with the boundaries of this state."
In 2013 celebrity lawyer Erin Brockovich -- portrayed in the eponymous movie about her life by Julia Roberts -- was cited for DUI by a game warden while boating on Nevada's Lake Mead.
Game Wardens May Have Expanded Search Powers
In some instances, game wardens may actually have more power than police officers when it comes to warrantless searches of persons or vehicles.Typically, police officers must have probable cause or consent to search a person or a vehicle without a warrant. A 2012 California Supreme Court case found that even when a game warden lacks reasonable suspicion that a person has violated an applicable fish or game statute or regulation, they may still stop the suspect's vehicle and demand the suspect display any fish or game in the suspect's possession.
So have a healthy legal respect for game wardens, or it may end up costing you.
Place to avoid if you don’t want a crazy gunman shooting at you. Also a place to boycott.
