Wild Wings: Check Gun At The Door

I went to take my son into the new Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant and on our way into the door I saw a big white sign that said, “Buffalo Wild Wings BANS GUNS ON THESE PREMISES.” When I was 4 years old, 1991, we lived in Killeen, Texas. I remember hearing the sirens after an estranged man by the name of George Pierre drove his 1987 Ford Ranger into the front windows of Luby’s Restaurant. He then started shooting all the customers. Suzana Hupp, whom is now a State Representative of Texas, left her gun she always carried in her car because of the recently passed gun law prohibiting her to carry. She was being a law-abiding citizen. She watched her parents get shot by George Pierre/Bruce Berry, of Coeur d'Alene, letter to the editor, Coeur d'Alene Press. More here.

Question: Are you more/less likely to visit the new Buffalo Wild Wings as a result of their no-guns policy?
