It is your right to prohibit the lawful carry of arms in your establishments, just as it's your right to prohibit people from standing on soap boxes. However, do not let the actions of a few morons tarnish the millions of decent, law abiding (the whole federal background check thing) gun owners in the US. There are many who will no longer go to your restaurants because of your recent request, choosing to spend their money with you competitors. Many are not as vocal as the anti-gun groups however, and this is why you haven't heard of them. The undersigned are attempting to reverse this and make our voices heard. The anti0gun crowd is very loud, and very vocal while we tend to just complain amongst ourselves. We need to stop this and make our wishes and our views known. We need to stop being the silent majority, and make our voices heard in ways that don't further the negative stereotypes against us.
