ZOMG!!!111eleven!1: The count down to guns in restaurants that serve alcohol
Perusing the lefty blogs and the newspapers (but I repeat myself), it seems as though they all think we’re all going to die on July 14 when the ordinance to allow, err, ordnance into places that serve alcohol goes into effect. Unfortunately, they’re in for disappointment because, like other states with such a measure, nothing is really going to happen. But still, it’s fun to see what they’re up to. Wendi Thomas, whose utter genius we’ve witnessed before, won’t eat where her fellow diners are packing heat. I am curious how she’s going to ensure that no one near her is strapped. Oh, she’s going to start a webpage that shows places that prohibit the law-abiding from carrying. Those places will be safe from the law-abiding and their money. I was going to track places that prohibit the law-abiding from eating there but the hippies are doing the work for me. Here’s the other of their efforts. In their latest, they’re all butthurt because someone in Seattle unlawfully brandished a weapon. If only unlawfully brandishing a weapon was unlawful, then we wouldn’t need to ban guns where there’s alcohol. Oh, wait.
Via Squeaky, who seems upset that Wendi and her big brain don’t want comments that shatter the worldview. Not sure why you’re upset. The only one reading them is us.
Meanwhile, here’s a non-hippie tracking of places that don’t want my money.

Um, last sentence, don’t you mean “places” that don’t want your money?
Excellent resource for y’all, btw..

I did take note of the decided LACK of comments on Wendi’s site. And her repeated commands for us to “get [our] own site”. Why would we do that? We all have blogs already, and thanks to Wendi and that other guy, we’ll have our list of places. So we still “win”. Heh.

Nothing like finding the one bad actor halfway across the country. Of course, no mention in any article I read about where this guy got alcohol from (he may have been drinking at home and went for a walk), and no mention in the blog post that the police were called, determined his actions unwarranted, and that he was arrested without incident. The guy screwed up, yes, but his weapon never left it’s holster, and he was arrested.
BTW, this is another example of why you should not drink and carry, it messes not only with your aim, but also with your ability to assess risk.

Thanks for the plug, Unc. Hopefully more people will chip in with the information they have.
