One would think they would want and welcome such a person in the restaurant. It would help to deter a bad guy. The person who ask him to leave should be fired for ignorance.

I wish that would happen, too, but I've come to believe that too many businesses would completely sacrifice their business to uphold their "principles." On the surface, that would seem like a good thing. But underlying it is, I believe, the same mentality as a woman that I talked to who admitted that she would rather allow herself to be raped or killed than to defend herself with deadly force. I don't believe that she is alone. Those in business who abhor guns so much that they will eject a police officer with one have the same mindset as the woman regarding the safety of the employees and customers. They don't view their attitude as ignorance. A local Sprouts Farmers Market store was held up at gunpoint a week or so after they posted their 30.06 signs. Letters to the local manager and the corporate headquarters, which appears to be staffed by liberal loons, were answered with the phrase "the safety of our customers." Clearly, they believe that law abiding Texans pose more of a threat than the criminals. I believe that Sprouts would close their doors before allowing armed LTCs on their property. Given the mentality toward law enforcement in many areas today, I'm not sure that places like Sprouts don't view them the same.
