Idiots! I support the second amendment as well but that's just crazy. If I was a customer at one of those restaurants I would call 911 and tell them that some dudes just walked in with a bunch of guns. I know they wouldn't get arrested but it would be fun to see them get harassed by the cops...lol.

Open carry demonstrations, while legal, do way more harm than good especially when they're done in a heavily traveled public venue. All they do is make people feel intimidated and uncomfortable and fuel the backlash against responsible gun ownership. Someone needs to tell these attention-seeking dipsticks to tone it down or get lost.

Anybody that walks in with a gun in the visible makes me uncomfortable. So dumb.

Why?

If you were going to get shot, you wouldn't have time to think about being uncomfortable.

OTOH, anyone with sinister thoughts would probably think otherwise...

I have weapons to protect my home. But anyone who walks into a place where I am eating with guns out is an idiot, and I am taking my family out of there as fast as humanly possible.

Non issue? BS. These guys are doing the anti gun crowd a favor.

Oh, and also proud to live in Texas.

Your 1st sentence - totally disagree
Your 2nd sentence - agree somewhat
Your 3rd sentence - agree 100%

These idiots are the best thing to ever happen to the liberals and gun grabbers in this state.
