Hiding from all you crazy people!!!
Don't be surprised if you get a boot in the ass then. There are appropriate restaurants in which to show your rear, a nice one or a family one isn't the place. A titty bar or sports bar, you're home free.

Lol well I'm more or less kidding BUT any one willing to put a boot in my ass has a rude awakening
I bet I kick harder ; )
Honestly I don't really care for people being loud in an eat'n joint. I typically won't say anything in front of other people's kids I won't say in front of mine. But then agian I've gotten into it twice about me doing it. Once was like 3am at IHOP after leaving the bar. The way I see it, someone who has an 8 year old out at 3am instead at home sleeping doesn't have much right to tell me what I can and can't say. Next was at the lake on the 4th o July, everyone was drinking and we had all our boats tide up together. Some couple with thier kids came and tide up to us, then a bit later told me I need to watch the way I talk around their kids. I politely told them they shouldn't be taking thier kids around a bunch of drunk 21 year olds if thy didn't want them to hear that stuff. That if they didn't like it they can untie from my boat and find a new place to hang out.

Yep. That makes sense. If you take your wife/kids/SO someplace where it's common to cuss and make lewd comments, then you really can't get mad. I'm talking about nice restaurants of family places (or the movies, etc.)

It's more about respect for others than morality police.

Don't get me wrong... I met a very lovely lady for coffee the other night, and there was a table of kids behind me who kept dropping f-bombs. I turned around and said, calmly but firmly, "We've heard about all the f-bombs we care to hear. Tone it down, please?" They were all apologetic, and when we left I thanked them for being so considerate. One apologized for forgetting his manners. You don't suppose that open carry had anything to do with that, do you?

We'll just have to agree to disagree on this one. Clearly, I'm not suggesting that the first contact involve the threat of violence, and this has nothing to do with carrying a gun.

And from your posts, and my ASSumption about your character, you don't strike me as the kind of guy that would let someone be vulgar in front of your wife or kids. You impress me as the kind of guy that would step up.

I dont know you personally but I'd be willing to bet that you would make the man in the picture on your profile proud of you because of who you are. A real mans man. You stand up for what you believe in and you didnt get where you are in life today by being timid. I totally respect you and admire you as a man, a husband, a businessman, and a friend to your friends. Thank you for being who you are and rescuing this site.

Its not only resturaunts, its everywhere. Try working retail. After what I see and hear daily, I honestly think we as a society are sinking to lows. Its to the point where I am really looking hard at changing jobs, I am disgusted with people these days.

The open carry question was in jest. They couldn't have seen my firearm until I got up to leave...and coincidentally, that's when one of the kids apologized again...

I'm just tired of people getting over the top offended over a damn word. There's a time and place for everything.. well almost everything. If I allowed that statement to stand, Been would be along shortly to post a photo of something that there is NEVER a time or place for...lol
