Papa Roux Was Robbed Tonight

And that's exactly why this will receive little, if any publicity.

It's got some publicity. This was on TV while I was waiting in car-x today. If the place is too small, what about organizing shifts for 'meet&eats'--mon. tue. wed etc?

It's on national as well as local news and supposedly the place is packed. We would support him better if we waited for all of this to die down, then had a meet&eat there.

It's funny how people would rather be shot dead by a criminal than have a fighting chance in a "shoot out".

well trained and disciplined sheeple

If I see one more freaking dog with a tennis ball in its mouth.... SO. HELP. ME.!!!!

Good thinking--you must be a small business owner

1. Wouldn't he be more liable if he encouraged arming his employees?
2. I'd imagine that option is also more expensive for him.
3. I doubt he's going to experience much, if any, loss from this.

Maybe he knows his employees better than we do and he doesnt WANT them carrying on the clock?

I'm struggling to think of a business that does want that.

Not that it's an inherently bad thing... but I imagine it has a lot of hassle that goes with it.

I've only ever known very, very small business owners that carry on the job. Or gun shop employees.

There's plenty of other guns besides a Glock.........Oh......."on the clock".

So, they are going to take a loss on some of their orders to have some people show up who might defend them from robbers....why doesn't he subsidise his employees getting a LTCH and a firearm instead? And carry one himself? I'd feel better if the staff were responsible for their own safety rather than trying to rope me and others into being their guardians for a discounted sandwich. Why shouldn't they provide for the safety of their own staff and patrons?

Some of his employees do, at least I've seen them in the past.

Sooooo, we ***** and moan about businesses that advertise anti-gun. Now we ***** and moan when a business advertises that they are PRO GUN and even offer a discount for it. WTH? A fickle group......

You got a mouse in your pocket over there? Who's this we?

 

[snorko]

So what do folks recommend to eat there?

I have been there for lunch once, it was OK but a little underwhelming given the buildup. I had a catfish po'boy which was good but I got it toasted which liquefied the dressing too much.

Restaurant Gets Robbed, Owner Now Gives 25% Discount To Concealed Carriers. A Deal Too Delicious To Pass Up! | Concealed Nation

I was there today, had a delicious Oyster PoBoy, thanks fo asking.

Talked to Art Bouvir, AKA Papa Roux, and he said business was fantastic and about 50% of the people are getting the discount, 25% are showing their permit and declining the offered discount and the rest normal customers.

There was a line all the time I was there.

I LOVE it when a small business does well. This location had several restaurants prior to this that went under rather quickly. I think it's wonderful.

 

[bwframe]

The better half and I will be dining there soon. Although we'll let him know we have LTCH we have decided not to avail ourselves of the discount. Carrying is a civic responsibility and is its own reward.

Sounds like a double duty cool way to handle this would be to take the 20% discount and put it in the employee tip jar? Looks like those folks are working pretty hard trying to keep up.

That Oyster Po-Boy sounds wonderful. I might just have to ride the motorcyle up there the latter part of this week, before it gets much colder. Anyone know what is the slower part of their afternoon?
