What are your thoughts to these people lol.
"Last week a group of police officers from another jurisdiction in this state were training in the Smyrna area when they decided to stop at Pat's Pizza for lunch. A patron complained about the officers wearing their firearms and wanted them to either leave or put the firearms in their vehicles. Pat's management refused to comply with the patron's request and advised that he likes the police in his establishment. From all of us here at the Smyrna Police Department, Thank-you Pat's!"

I think if a business refuses to let police officers wear guns in their establishment, then the police should refuse to respond to robbery calls from the establishment. After all they can't bring guns, so why come at all. Maybe the establishment owner can ask the robbers to please put their guns in their car. Yeah, that'll work............

IMO we all need to get Hoplophobia covered under ObamaCare. Would love to hand the "patron" in question a business card from a local shrink & suggest that they call to discuss their fears.
My father owned a small retail business (dry-cleaning & tailoring). The police were ALWAYS welcome in his shop even if just to get out of the weather. He cleaned & pressed uniforms for cost. In the event of a funeral their dress uniforms fit perfectly. When our house was broken into it was handled like a million dollar bank robbery. Those cops encouraged me to learn to shoot, even coached me when I was at the local range. One of our neighbors would cook a couple of extra turkeys on Thanksgiving & invite the on duty officers to stop in for a meal.
Where & how has society changed so much that police officers are no longer respected & thanked for the jobs that they do?

HA! That's like the parents in California (I think) complaining to the principal about the police office picking up his daughter in uniform (green SWAT fatigues) with his gun on his hip. There was a follow-up article with the police officer response to it.
Yeah, today's parents are a bunch of wussies. Glad I don't have kids.

I've seen and been around a lot of cops. I have never personally seen or dealt with an unprofessional LEO. TV says that most of them are bad cops but only half of the U.S. believes that ..thanks LSM.
Never really did get the "being scared of LEO" theme until rap started.

This guy must be one of the perpetually offended who believe their right not to be offended outweighs whatever insignificant rights (in his mind) that you may think you have. It is nice to have them around occasionally as a reality check whenever we start to think that maybe, just maybe, that it is possible a lib might finally start to get it. ::)(except for of course our resident lib who I think really does get it but he can't admit too much or they will take his card away) ;D

This goes beyond brilliant, but i would also be ticked if it were a private citizen and some sheep complained.
Their fear should not trump our rights.

Their fear should not trump our rights.
Absolutely Correct!

I wonder if that @@@@-fool patron has anything productive to do with their time and energy? I mean.... there must be some tree that needs a hug or a protest against global warming to attend somewhere. Had I been the manager, I think I would have told the patron that "we are going to hold an NRA Home Firearms Safety class in your booth in five minutes, you're invited to stay for the class, if you'd like".

I am happy that these things are happening. It really shows off the stupidity of these anti-gunners to everyone. Front page news. It's no longer just about citizens. LEO's and military are now included in the uproar.
