It's business. It's a Family Restaurant. They want people to feel safe there and if that means some cash walks out the door instead of some Rambo trying to save it, it all works out fine in the end. They don't tell their employees to hand it over because they are worried about being the target of a robbery here or there. That is inevitable, that's business.It's Public Relations. That's a nicer way of saying such a thing, but that doesn't change the basic point, they don't bullets flying around regardless of the reasons, even in Texas.So you're out driving around and you decide to grab a burger. Do you really think they are going to go home and drop off their gun before going to Sonic? And lets say that people would actually follow Sonics request (which they wont) how long do you think Sonic would stay in business? Here in Texas they wouldnt last six months.
This is nothing but lip service from Sonic.
It's all bullshit. Sonic knows damn well people will ignore the request. All this does is make them a target.
A better way would have been to say we dont mind CHL holders in our stores but please leave your long guns at home or in your vehicle so as not to scare our liberal pansy customers.
They can read the polls. GunsCorporations aren't that worried about being robbed, like banks it comes with the territory, but they are worried about lawsuits, bad press, and people getting killed on their property. You see this as Law and Order. It isn't, it's business.
Again, do you have any sort of statics to support why they'd be worried?? They have a right as business owners to make such decisions, but I'm not clear on what is motivating them. Has Sonic had a decline in business based on customer complaints regarding other patrons having guns??
Check out the Starbucks number. 66% anti-gun. 11% unsure.

The stories are there because the Rambos are walking in with their guns trying to prove a point, and it's backfiring, pun intended.It's business. It's a Family Restaurant.

Where are all those Rambo stories?? Are they only being aired on MSNBC??

So your answer is no, you don't have evidence on why Sonic chose to make such a business decision. Don't embarrass yourself by comparing Starbucks to Sonic.

Are they not both large chains with careful branding and a national presence? I didn't compare Red Lobster to the local titty bar. And all the gun control numbers are what you should look at. Most people want more gun control. That is what the corporations are responding to.

I obviously haven't seen firsthand evidence of such behavior, and I'm not seeing it reported in the MSM. Other than some pics, which I'll even assume aren't staged, where is the real public outcry regarding all of these so-called masses of people packing heat in such establishments??
Wait, What? Sonic Robbed Right After Banning Guns! | BuzzPoBuzzPo
Oklahoma based fast food drive thru chain Sonic, banned guns earlier this week. On the same day they announced it, in true Jack in the Box like fashion, one of their Topeka, KS restaurants was robbed!
They care very little about the cash. They care a lot about you scaring people away or shooting the place up trying to be John Wayne. See how that works wannabe hero?
It's not a problem at the moment, and they don't want it to become so so. See how that works? Sometimes people try to fix what what we haven't managed to break yet. It's the gun nuts that are pushing this issue so the corporations are being forced to push back. You don't need a loaded AR-15 to get a burger. Do the restaurant a favor and leave it at home.So your answer is no, you don't have evidence on why Sonic chose to make such a business decision.

Most people want laws that prevent people from obtaining a firearm who would be inclined to misuse it...don't confuse that with law abiding citizens owning guns. I still want to see all these stories of people shooting up establishments because they were responding to the actions of an armed criminal.

The Left, for the most part, doesn't want all the guns but I do. They want you to be responsible with your guns and make sure that only sane people own them, which means gun control.I know it's all about the need to disarm people. The left claims they don't want to take guns away, yet they keep finding more and more reasons to do just that.

Now the truth comes out...it's the anti-gun nuts who are pushing this issue and corporations are being forced to comply. Feelings over facts.

Anti-gun people aren't walking into restaurants with their big toys on display, that's you guys.
It's alright, you admitted that this is being carried out based on speculation rather than facts, and there's no need to be ashamed...that's your stance, and you should own it.
How are they gonna stop me from carrying mine, its concealed, you don't see it until I show it to you.
The stories are out there. Dismiss them if you like but the corporations wouldn't be responding otherwise.Now the truth comes out...it's the anti-gun nuts who are pushing this issue and corporations are being forced to comply. Feelings over facts.
