We stopped in Nashville to have sushi with a well-known Internet celebrity. <br /><br />I had to take off my guns off before I entered the restaurant. Unbeknownst to me they magically reappeared in my holsters.<br /><br />It's all about trade offs. Up here I am free to carry 14 guns into a bar and have a cold pilsner, but if my under 21 year old nephews see a bar while seated in a restaurant, they will burst into flames.
