I don’t see this as an Anti-Gun stance.
They are a Business that deals with a myriad of Customers, not just Gun Owners. People are acting like the new Open Carry Law is supported by 100% of the Texas Population, it is not.
Whataburger simply realized that many of their Customers might feel uncomfortable seeing an exposed Weapon when they come in to have a Meal with their Families.
Just because WE may not feel that way, many others do.
It is a delicate balancing act, and I think they figured they would lose more Customers by allowing Open Carry than not.
They allow Concealed, so what exactly is the Problem?
Stick the Pistol in your Waistband and go chow down.

You’re saying exactly what I’m saying after that line. Its just a business decision. Pure and simple. I’m not going to be unreasonable and have a knee-jerk reaction. I’ll leave that to the liberals who are much better than I am at being perpetually offended, professional grade...: )
I’m not a big open carry person myself. I think much if it has to do with ego. Once you’ve carried for a long time its just like carrying a wallet or your sunglasses around.
“Shall not be infringed” is the problem. Compromise has led to the ridiculous attitude of those “uncomfortable” people. I grew up with guns and it was never an issue, anywhere, at any time.
