    We'll see what his reaction is. Wouldn't surprise me if the restaurant manager put the sign up without Keith's knowledge.

    Sign was put up by manager. The TK restaurants are Franchise eateries, like any other chain. The owner can decide what if any restrictions they want to place. It seems the Ins carrier suggested it (for ins purposes) go figure.

    It’s worth noting that Keith’s involvement in his own chain — named after one of his biggest hits — varies by location.

    “For others he strikes licensing agreements with large operators for a flat fee, a cut of revenues or both,”
    While we understand and respect every person’s right to own and bear arms, we at Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar and Grill, with guidance from the State of Virginia and based on insurance regulations, have adopted a no weapons policy. It is our desire to provided a safe, enjoyable and entertaining experience for our patrons and staff.

    If we apply the same logic that is used in the Walmart-vs-Target thread, Toby Keith, by virtue of the restaurant chain policy, is a raving elitist libtard.

    I would agree with you IF the complaints had been "the manager at the Target in XXXXXX is a jerk so I'm going to boycott all Targets". The logic in the other thread would in fact apply here if TK really was a raving elitist libtard but you're so defensive about Target that you miss the point.

    Sorry sport, I think you have me confused with someone else as I consider Target rather down-market.

    This was posted on a couple other forums I frequent, and I was quite surprised at some of the assanine comments being made, basically wanting to tar and feather Toby Keith. Get real folks, the man's got zero decision making authority over that sort of thing.

    His name is on the front, that says it all.

    And apparently, like those posters, you just don't get how businesses work.

    Yes, I do get how business works, kind of my point. This has been going around for a few days now and Toby has made no statement. If he has a say or not on franchise gun policies he could at least make a statement but the money means more to him.
