A social media post about an armed soldier who was refused service at a Kentucky restaurant is going viral.
Billy Welch is an Army National Guard soldier. Welch says he always keeps his gun holstered to his side for safety reasons.
Welch says around 1:30 a.m. he stopped at the Waffle House in Nicholsville wearing his military uniform with his gun by his side.
After ordering his food, he said a waitress signaled for him to come over.
“I got up and I walked over to them, asked them how they were doing and stuff, and they said I’d have to take my firearm outside. I don’t feel comfortable taking my firearm away from me. I always keep it with me and they said, ‘it’s one of our policies.’”

Would they tell a cop that? Are they just stupid? Complain to the manager, if that fails, set up a boycott out side with the news media invited. This C**P has to cease.
Boycotting that Waffle House

Its their business… They can serve who they want.
Even if we dont agree.
For being a free country… We spend a lot of time telling people what they can and cannot do.
Why did he have his weapon in public?
