Joseph Schneider is minding his business in a Sussex restaurant, had already ordered and was eating peaceably when a State Trooper noticed his sidearm (after reviewing the video I think a bus boy pointed Joseph out to the trooper). The Trooper takes it upon himself to sternly ask the manager to answer his “simple question”. The trooper asks the manager “Do you guys allow guns in here?”. The Managers answers “Yes” (probably thinking the trooper is referring to his carrying of a gun). The Trooper realizing he’s received the ‘wrong’ answer follows up with “Not private citizens?” “Do you or Don’t?”. The manager realizing she’s not giving the answer the Trooper wants, follows the social queues and changes the answer to “No.” Later in the video the manager answers the same question “Oh I don’t know”, but at that point I think Joseph’s decided to choose his battles and walks out.
Watch his video.
“We don’t allow guns in here, unless you’re the police, cause you know, they’re police and they have the right to carry in here and you don’t and I don’t know why I am afraid of your gun or why I don’t want it in here but I feel as though you can’t have it here so I won’t you to secure it in your car or leave, cause you know, even though you were not doing anyting wrong, you know you make me and others uncomfortable even though you ordered food already and have acted peaceably and have been here before, you’re intentions may be good but I don’t know, guns equal bad and bad equals bad for business, so I’m going to call the police on your so they can police you for me and I am totally afraid to talk to you but the police, they’re more trustworthy to have guns and tell you to leave…”
Lameness is afoot…
