Waffle House = No firearms, even soldiers.

Waffle House is worried about CCW holders, but they sure seem to welcome the brutal attacks and mob fights that occur there on an almost daily basis.

That's painting with a pretty wide brush. I've been eating at WH since I got stationed here in 1976 and I have never witnessed any type of attack or mob fight. I'm sure that there are some WH's in high crime areas where bad stuff happens but I doubt that it's the majority, or daily, or welcome.

They post a Bay Minette cop in there on Saturday night.... no really... quick response time!!
As far as guns go, they don't ask I don't tell.

Open carry, no permit carry, carry by a prohibited person, you know the usual stuff.

Yeah, I know, and not arguing; just want to further a discussion that is most often avoided, and inspired by the word "illegal."

What is a "legal" weapon vs an "illegal" weapon? I think if we look collectively at responses, we will see that the responses are mostly personal opinion/feelings. That's not law.

Don't mean to hijack a thread, but feel it's important to seperate personal beliefs, feelings, wants, etc., from " the law."

Understood. Thanks for the invitation. As with the larger gun control discussion, we usually agree it isn’t the weapon itself, but the individual that is “responsible“. A gun is a gun is a gun. FL law rightly focuses on places and manner of carry, as well as legal status of the carrier or potential carrier, rather than the gun itself. All that said, WH I believe cares more about the legal status of the carrier, but the wording is awkward, as it so often is.

I was in Tiger Point Waffle House this morning. Unless they hid it well, I did not see any no firearms sign.

^^^I've never seen such a sign at a waffle house anywhere^^^

I feel like something was very misinformed with the initial article. As I've worked security at the waffle house on pensacola blvd ( yea it's that much a shitshow on the weekends) and I've yet to see a sign saying no firearms.

I can outright say there is something odd about any troop open carrying a personal firearm off duty (or on duty for that matter)

On the outside wall, up by the security camera over the parking lot.

I guess they did hide it well, I'll have to look next time I'm there.

Hmm…I’ve broken that rule a lot!

Sign, sign, everywhere a sign
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?

All signs are not laws, but some laws are on signs.
