Context: 3 :thumb-cop: go into the restaurant strapped (never know when you might need to extrajudicially murder your sandwich), staff asks them to please leave since firearms are not allowed inside, thin blue skin gets feelings hurt, there is a backlash from our brain poisoned reactionary public, restaurant forced to apologize.

NICE FUCKIN’ COUNTRY

    The response:

    Our restaurant is a safe space - particularly for queer and bipoc individuals. Furthermore, the fact that they were in uniform with multiple weapons on them made our staff uncomfortable, and potentially other guests, so they were asked to leave. We would happily welcome them off duty, out of uniform and without weapons.

    We're sorry that the decision upset you. We understand your perspective and we hope you'll consider ours.

      Oh so it was actually a non-apology? What a rollercoaster

          Good :gigachad-hd: the more they talk about it, the more vulnerable people who need those kinds of spaces will hear about it
