    I'd have to go to the original article. That may have been added by Daily Wire.

    I endured it so that you don’t have to. Daily Wire’s substitute title is pretty much a summary of the article. But the original title in the New Yorker is:Chick-fil-A’s Creepy Infiltration of New York City

    I suspect that this had more to do with it than the shirt..

    Johnston, who was legally and openly carrying his firearm on a hip holster wore the above shirt to the father-daughter outing.”

    Sure it did. But it wasn't anything with the gentleman. It was all in her head. She may have learned this "suspicious person....with a gun on his chest" fake reporting from one of those web sites that tells people to SWAT gun owners.

    Of course it was all in her head. The only point I was making was that the article title was clickbait. It sounds pretty bad to be "swatted" for a T-shirt. Doubtful police would have been called without the OC.

    Maybe. But that's not what the officer is quoted in the article.
