Cops can't carry their guns in Denny's!

[Dirtebiker]

I saw this article on Fox News. I will be boycotting Denny's until they change their policies.

We've been done with Denny's since the last two times we went there and got LOUSY service and COLD food ( that was supposed to be hot)!

I complained to the manager both times. The first of the two, she didn't charge us, so we gave them another chance the following week. The second time was worse than previously! I complained and a different manager apologized (after we had paid) and offered us a free meal on the next visit. We told her "don't bother, we won't be back!".

Btw... This was the Greenwood location on U.S.31, north of the mall.

Local citizens like Jennifer Veri support the police, Veri said, “You want them to be with their guns that makes them cops so they can protect the public.”

Yes. The gun is what makes them a cop. I'm just a wanna be cop. That certainly is why I have a gun. Purple.

I don't want people to punish all gun owners because of the actions of a few. I'm not going to ban Denny's because of this idiot manager.

Now if Denny's as a corporation takes a stance against armed patrons? Color me gone.

Sounds like your just on the wrong side of the corruption wagon. Stereotyping any class of people is not a good thing.

I'm just going on my personal experience and I watched the video. I try not to let my prejudices affect my judgment but everyone has them. They just make me cautious until I know someone is not the enemy, same as any cop I know

Then I can respect that.

I heard that the manager that asked the LEO's to leave was fired by Denny's but then recruited by Dunkin Donut as a district manager...

Aren't LEO's required to carry when off-duty in some states (don't know about that LA-LA Land) (A.K.A. Illinois)

Here is the article from the LEO news sources
Denny's manager: On-duty officers can't carry guns in restaurant

I'm not familiar with Denny's policies: are they a no go place for LTCHers?

If they are... I don't know about it. I eat their regularly and haven't seen any posted signs.

It isn't state specific, but department specific. My department only requires that I carry if I am driving a police vehicle.

 

[WebSnyper]

Ironic, and like others said now they know how the rest of us feel.


And while not smart, a business is just as entitled to ask them to leave as anyone else...

Denny's does not discriminate, they generally treat everyone poorly.

Probably the most accurate statement in this thread.

The cops should stage an open carry event there.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

The cops should stage an open carry event there.

What??? And get the cops called on them? Are you nuts?

 

[LockStocksAndBarrel]

The cops should stage an open carry event there.

Just because it's legal doesn't mean they should do it. Why cause a problem that would reflect poorly on them?

Stop the Denny's bashing for crying out loud....

It's pretty obvious it was THAT particular individual that had personal ties against GUNS.
Denny's is a 2A supporter. Don't let some minimum wage manager change your views on an entire company...

They're one of the best places to go when you have a late night crave.
Then again, I can only speak on behalf of ONE Denny's that I frequent that always has phenomenal service and food. Many others in the area are below-par.

Surely (or should that be Shirley? ) you don't mean the one in Greenwood!?

Mine would be White Castle...I wonder if they allow OC?

White Castle is OC friendly. Look up "open carry" in wikipedia and I think it is a picture of a guy in a White Castle.
