I really like Toby Keith, hes a great artist and an avid supporter of America and our military. Hell this year he finished his 11th USO tour this year.. Hes been to both Iraq and Afghanistan a few times to perform for troops, if the guy wants to open a bar and request you don't bring in your conceal weapons, I would respect his request. The last thing you can call this guy is anti-american View Quote Don't be a chicken shit. The guy is a libtard gun grabbing pole smoker. |

I went to Toby's restaurant site...left a message saying I could not spend my hard earned $$$ there with the current policy...heres the letter I got...
Hi Capt. Beach, While we understand and respect every person's right to own and bear arms, we at Toby Keith's I Love This Bar and Grill strive to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for all our patrons. In an effort to do so, we employ an unarmed and experienced security detail for our late night business. While there is not doubt that you are a responsible gun owner, there are those who are not so responsible, especially when alcohol is involved. The irresponsibility of others has led to our creation of a no guns policy. As much as we would like to say that every person with a CCW is an experienced and capable gun owner, we cannot say or ensure that. Please understand that our policy is not intended to keep you from being a patron of our business or as a protest against your right to bear arms, but rather is meant to keep everyone safe and make it so that you will not need to use your firearm in our place of business. Also lending to this policy, are stipulations by our insurance company which do not permit us to have coverage while permitting firearms in our place of business. For these reasons, the policy was instituted. We hope that you understand that this is not a policy aimed to infringe upon your constitutional protections, but rather to keep everyone safe from the few who do not understand how truly dangerous a firearm can be. Warm Regards, Tawnya | Corporate Guest Relations and Training Manager |

Here's my reply to their form letter, not that it'll do any good.
I thank you for your prompt reply and encourage you to emulate the courage and patriotic dedication Toby Keith extols in his songs. There are more important things in life and in business than just limiting risk. Doing the right thing is one of them, and right now you aren't doing the right thing from a customer safety perspective or for civil rights. Please consider that your customers are actually much safer where guns are allowed than they are where a bad guy has a pool of guaranteed unarmed victims. I'm sorry to say I can't do business with you in good conscience until you change a policy to one that respects individual safety and freedom.
Hoping you change your mind, HRomberg View Quote |

He's long claimed to be a Democrat. Now I guess he's a gun-hating liberal Democrat. Imagine that. Fuck him. It probably has more to do with lawyers, insurance and liability than his political beliefs. Ignore the sign? I am not familiar with the laws in VA, so I would NOT suggest ignoring the sign. If it is a mere suggestion, then I wouldn't eat there. If it is actually illegal to carry in an establishment that has a sign posted, then I wouldn't eat there. All they can do if they discover you are carrying is ask you to leave. If you refuse, it becomes a trespass charge. No gun charge at all. It is legal to concealed carry in a restaurant (Va does not have any "bars") as long as you dont drink. It is legal to open carry in a restaurant and drink but not become intoxicated. |

In Virginia, you're allowed to carry in bars. Crimes occur in bars. Bars get robbed. Mass shootings have occurred in restaurants.

Prohibited Conduct and Where Unlawful to Carry - Section 18.2-308.012 Any person permitted to carry a concealed handgun who is under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs while carrying such handgun in a public place is guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor. Conviction of any of the following offenses shall be prima facie evidence, subject to rebuttal, that the person is "under the influence" for purposes of this section: manslaughter in violation of Section 18.2-36.1, maiming in violation of Section 18.2-51.4, driving while intoxicated in violation of Section 18.2-266, public intoxication in violation of Section 18.2-388, or driving while intoxicated in violation of Section 46.2-341.24. No person who carries a concealed handgun onto the premises of any restaurant or club as defined in Section 4.1-100 for which a license to sell and serve alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption has been granted by the Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control Board under Title 4.1 of the Code of Virginia; may consume an alcoholic beverage while on the premises. A person who carries a concealed handgun onto the premises of such a restaurant or club and consumes alcoholic beverages is guilty of a Class 2 misdemeanor. However, nothing in this subsection shall apply to a federal, state, or local law-enforcement officer. Section 18.2-308.01: Private property when prohibited by the owner of the property, or where posted as prohibited. http://www.vsp.state.va.us/Firearms_ResidentConcealed.shtm#WhereUnlawfultoCarry Dude, Toby, dont quote VA law to us.

Quite true, and there are places where they ask their customers to dress nicely and speak quietly as well. Not to mention not cursing. If you don't want to deal with it you go somewhere else. This thread is mostly about us letting them know we'll be going elsewhere. And no. If you're carrying you shouldn't be drinking. Thats probably part of why they don't want folks carrying. We WOULDN'T be drinking so we wouldn't be giving them as much money. |
