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.’”

The company commander has absolutely no say on if you can carry a weapon outside the base. Only The state (in this case Germany) can give you that authority. Same goes for the U.S. That is the only legal way arrest powers can be done.
The PUKE house
Wrong
Let’s send them to the muslims
This man was in a physical altercation at that location two weeks prior to this happening. He was subdued by off duty police and removed from the premises. If you want to boycott this place, at least do it for valid reasons, like the food sucks.
Ms. Horton ! You did not read the entire thing by clicking on the photo and reading ! The man was not refused service because he was in the military He came in wearing his private side arm and the waitress took him off to the side and explained no one but Police were allowed in that establishment with an fire arm strapped to their side and if he could take it out and leave it in his car then he would be served, but he made the choice to leave instead. He even said she was not nasty with him, but he made the choice to leave !
He was ask to take his side arm out and leave it in his car and he would be served because they have a policy of no open fire arms in there . He made the choice too leave ! It had nothing to do with his being military !
I just conceal it if they don’t allow guns
I understand that,KY has concealed weapons permit . It’s called right to bear arms. Look at gun free zones, they dont work Danny Davidson,case and point Oklahoma shooting and so many others! Wake up America!
You are completely out of your element on this argument. U.S and DoD law says you are wrong. I already showed you the articles an you till want to argue a FACT.? You must have been the worst MP of alltime since you didn’t know your job.
