Tennessee Firearms Assoc. Inc.

I didn't see a post on this, but I wanted to be sure everyone knows that Midtown Cafe, Sunset Grill and Cabana, in Nashville are all owned by the man who was the named plaintiff in the lawsuit by which Chancellor Bonnyman overturned the Restaurant Carry Law. I went to the websites for each restaurant, but the one for Sunset Grill is the only one with contact information and you can fill out an online form to send a comment to them.

I advised them that while I respected everyone's right to believe as they wished, my belief was that if you did not want me to carry my licensed firearm into your restaurant, you did not want me to carry my money in either, so neither I, my family, or anyone with whom I had any influence would be eating at any of their restaurants. I received an automated response immediately which said someone would be getting back to me later. I will post more when I receive a response.

You can go to the following website for an article on this:

This article talks about the restaurants he owns:

We need to flood their email to let them know how we feel. The address is: http://www.sunsetgrill.com/new_feedback_form_1

And don't you think it's funny that while the anti-gun folks want all records of permit holders open to the public, nine of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit were listed as "Jane/John Does" for "fear of reprisal."

I finally received an email after I wrote back and asked why I had not had a response. Someone named Bri advised "your emails have been forwarded to each restaurant."

I'll be curious to see what kind of response you get, if any beyond what you have already received.

Randy Rayburn owns all 3 restaurants. He's also rumoured to be preparing to run for Metro Council, and used this lawsuit as a means
of free publicity for his restaurants, & to get his name before the public prior to an election bid.

Keep us posted (pun intended), please.
