Nuh uh. The momunists and their ilk have already let us know that this kind of thing NEVER happens and haters walk around with hidden weapons to shoot innocent people whenever they feel like and then claim "stand your ground".

Did I read somewhere that Waffle Houses are supposed to be gun free zones?

Corporate allows managers to go by “local standards.”

I believe that the article said that corporate allowed some leeway based on local laws. But generally, gun free zones.

I like the Waffle House. They don't really have many of them north of the Mason/Dixon line (I prefer to call it the IHOP/Waffle House line).

I also like the Waffle House specific songs they have on the jukeboxes down there. Now that's another novelty right there. They still have jukeboxes! Also, pay phones as you walk into the entrance. It's like stepping back in time when you walk into the Waffle House.

I may have to stop calling it the “Awful House”.

I like to lovingly call it the “Awful Waffle”! LOL!

They really need to expand nationwide.

Hope this never happens in an establishment that has REAl butter (where I only patronize).

In Georgia, there's a chain called Huddle House. Same concept, waffle place.

We always called it 'Hoodlum House'.

At three in the AM, nothin’ takes the place of a scattered, covered, smothered, chunked, and topped, with plenty of coffee. Robber fool musta been a Yankee ...
