The latest Toby Keith restaurant opened in Woodbridge. Prominently displayed on the front door is a sign saying: “NO GUNS PERMITTED.”

 

Virginia happens to be a gun-friendly state, where it’s quite permissible for citizens to strap on a weapon and go into a bar or restaurant, as long as the weapon is clearly visible. State law is silent on the issue of drinking while openly carrying a gun. (State law does prohibit most citizens who are legally carrying a concealed weapon from consuming alcohol, but they, too, are allowed to go into a bar or restaurant.)

 

The owners have the right to say "no" to firearms, and that's the rule at Keith's Woodbridge restaurant.

Facebook has erupted over the issue, with one patron saying she's "disappointed" and believes the no guns policy announces to criminals that "anyone leaving your establishment is likely completely defenseless and easy pickin's for a robbery." That poster said she will not patronize the new Toby Keith restaurant.

They only serve white meat, no dark meat allowed on the premises...  Oh, and no Dixie Chicks allowed either...

What kind of sick fantasy world do mofos inhabit where they think they need to walk around with pistols on their hips? I'm more worried about some Tactical Asshole shooting up the restaurant I'm in because they're trying to prevent a dine-&-dash.

I have lived in the DC area for 30 years, and have yet to set foot in any establishment and see someone open carry a gun (outside of law enforcement of course).
