Guns Guns

I guess there's more than one way for somebody to "be packing" at Old Country Buffet...

No guns allowed.

The Police Department has been querying businesses to see where people are allowed to carry weapons, and where it is prohibited by company policy.

The query follows an incident in which a dozen customers at Old Country Buffet were questioned by police for openly carrying guns. One person was detained and his gun confiscated.

To Chief Stadnitski’s surprise, the response from business owners has been overwhelmingly against allowing gun-carrying patrons in their establishments.

“And many, they’re not just saying ‘no.’ They’re very vocal about this,” he said. “We expected more businesses to allow it.”

The only Dickson City business that has said it will allow customers to carry firearms to date is Cartridge World, said Chief Stadnitski.

Hey, I don't want any guns in my place of business. Nor do I want any guns where I go to dinner.

I guess Cartridge World must have some printer varmints, so you need some firepower to stop 'em before they destroy the stock.

Seriously, if I, for some reason, worked at Cartridge World and some dude came in carrying a gun, I'd be thinking WTF, I gotta get out of here, unless the guy is wearing a police uniform.
