I think 97.6834927485093% of people will think your a crazy gun nut. The other 2.(what ever)% will go "oh snap" really.
I personally have learned more about our states gun laws from this forum in the last year or so time than I have at any other point in my 25ish years of life. People have to want information to actually take the message that is in it.

The NRA’s strong statement reprimanding a few people for carrying long guns into restaurants was bound to get media attention. Bloomberg’s Moms Demand Action and much of the media quickly jumped in and described various restaurants as “asking customers to leave their guns at home.” But their assertions couldn’t be more misleading.
The headline at USA Today saying “No Guns Inside” or at MSNBC and Huffington Post saying “No-Gun Policies” are simply wrong.
The question here isn't whether open carry deters crime. The question is what deters crime more: open or concealed carry.
A big deal has been made of Starbucks, Jack in the Box, Chipotle, Wendy's, Applebee's, Chili’s and Sonic’s supposed bans on guns, with Bloomberg’s groups declaring “victory.”
Yet, Starbucks “respectfully requesting” customers no longer bring in openly carried guns is not a ban on guns.
Jack in the Box’s statement “we would prefer that guests not bring their guns inside our restaurant” refers to open carry. Neither restaurant forbids customers from carrying concealed handguns and comments like “request” or “prefer” are a long ways from bans.
Calls to all these restaurants revealed that none of them have changed their policy about posting any signs banning either generally banning guns or permitted concealed handguns.
With 11 million concealed handgun permits in the United States, it is understandable why none of these businesses want to risk losing that many customers

As long as these places are not posted properly, I can legally carry my concealed firearm there, and I intend to do that. Denny's lost my business a month ago when we walked up to have a couple of banana spliits, and saw the no carry sign at the door. We returned to the car and left. I will be printing up some "no guns, no cash" cards and return to present them with one. I do have choices!!!
Husker_Fan:
They haven't banned guns at Chipotle. They have just indicated that they prefer people not carry there.
Another thing is that you have no second amendment right to carry there.

Ah hah.....my example of chipotle was bad because they aren't posted yet at least locally.
Just getting started on here, I witnessed how fast the Gretna Crossing got turned around & even without a public statment.... it still smelled like VICTORY!
From my vantage point it appeared that the shear number of comments on social media & emails to them changed their tune pretty quickly!
What about the S.A.Q.A.R.T.T.P.A.F.U.Y.A.S........
the 'Second Amendment Quick Action Response Team To Put A Foot Up Your A$$ Squad'??
Whenever Moms Against Our Freedoms is on the prowl , they spring into action & take whatever steps are necessary to quell the disruption!
