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.’”

Absolutely ridiculous!
Calm down ! It’s because he came in wearing a side arm ! That waffle house has and has had a policy of only police allowed in there wearing a gun ! He was told he couldn’t be served with that weapon on his side, and if he would leave it in his car he would be served. He chose not to leave it in his car and left !
Never liked them anyway. No loss to me.
Real smart waffle boys.The good guys can’t be armed so when the first looney that doesn’t follow your rules pops in the death count will be higher because of your fabulous rule.Let me dine where the good guys have protection.
never ever
people need to lose their jobs, their franchise or their business, depending on their level of complicity.
For whatever reason refusing service is like a peaceful protest .
time for WF to fade into history- do NOT patronize them
