    I would eat there. What is there to worry about? They are there to serve you food, not kill you...

    I would love to eat there. I know it has a novelty appeal, but they probably have good food if they're going to stick around. I'm armed when I'm out in public anyway, you just don't know it.

    I would go there, I hope they'd sell me a postcard and a T shirt too, as I'm from England and it's something we don't get in England, so I'd want a photo, a selfie and a bunch of stuff with their name on it to say I've been there.

    Like a gift shop and a friendly policy of selfies with those girls for the patrons for like social media or vacation/holiday snaps, and being able to take pictures inside the place of your food for like Yelp or whatever and even of the place capturing the atmosphere and the waitresses with guns on their hips serving the customers, would be cool.

    When learning to shoot effectively in high school, we did not drink coffee or beverages when shooting. Later in the Army that was also true. We did not fire weapons and drink anything at the same time. As I returned to civilian life and fired, I also did not drink hot beverages nor any beverages when shooting. Even driving autos, I have never spilled hot beverages into my crotch.

    Tell us of your problem with drinking hot beverages.

    I wonder if business has 'shot up' since that newscast.

    I couldn't' resist the pun, sorry, but still, I bet that was some great free publicity, because I'm here and they're there and now I've heard of them and want to go.

    The pistol was lighter but the amount of powder in the Ammo was a fraction what is in the 30.06 round. Also the hand and arm acts as a shock absorber. The kick of the rifle hammers the shoulder. If I fired my 30.06 extremely light rifle for say 10 rounds, it would take a couple days for the shoulder to fully recover and I hold rifles tight into my shoulder to minimize the kick. I also had a Remington Rifle that was just a bit smaller caliber than the 30.06 and the recoil of it was not bad at all. I sold that rifle around 50 years back and only had it several years.

    So? What TF does that have to do with my post you quoted?

    I'm sure many people like greasy spoons and dives in bad neighborhoods, and need guns to feel "safe".


    I eat at places where I'm safe without gun totin' waiters.

    She has some negative impact due to CV19 but she also now spends days at the US Capitol. I donated to her to keep her in office. She only serves 2 year terms.

    She didn't storm Congress did she?

    IDK.

    Just seems far away to be from CO.

    Wait, is that 27 yr old mother of 4 with the rocking body and the grill in government?

    Your post has no relevance to the OP. Don't forget the name of the city is Rifle.

    Kind of cracks me up ... "Gotta have my gun on me in case that 1 in 10 million chance where I need to shoot it in
    a restaurant arises ... but masks during a pandemic where there is a 1 in 100 chance I'll catch a potentially deadly virus? Oh, hell, no."

    Americans are really bad at risk assessment.

    She just was sworn in this past January. She is already making a name for herself in Congress.

    Storm Congress?

    Frankly I do not accept the term storm as the public rallied outside the Capitol on Jan 6.The media made it seem sinister on purpose.

    First you will hear from a frightened Democrat male for a short time. Then she replies.

    I guess Congratulations are in order.

    If I could I'd vote for her.

    This is not the topic of masks. And is your right to force me to wear a mask found in the constitution?

    She started the business in 2013 and it seems to be busy. If her food was lousy she would have to have closed down.

    Every armed waitress is trained to prevent their weapons from being grabbed and also trained to immediately get them back if taken.
