La. Restaurateur Gives Discount to Gun Carriers: ‘I Just Need To See A Weapon’

Kevin Cox, owner of Bergeron's Restaurant in Port Allen, La., gives a 10 percent discount to gun-toting customers.

A restaurant owner in Port Allen, La. has been awarding a 10 percent discount to gun-toting customers in recent weeks.

“I just need to see a weapon. I need you to be carrying a gun,” Kevin Cox, the owner of Bergeron’s Restaurant, told local TV station WVLA on Thursday. “And as long as everybody has a gun we’re all the same size.”

Cox told the news station that he originally implemented the discount to thank law enforcement officers and later applied it to all customers who carried a gun into Bergeron’s Restaurant.

“I keep hearing so much about people banning guns,” he told WVLA. “Target’s banning guns and these people are banning guns. Don’t they realize that that’s where people with guns are going to go? I want to take the opposite approach. How can I make my place safer?”

Cox estimated that he gives out 15 to 20 discounts each day.

  3. Dumb phuq.

    Target DID NOT BAN GUNS. They merely, politely, asked folks to leave their “penis jewelry” sommers else.

  4. The stupid son-of-a-bitch obviously failing to recognize that the sane members of the community (yes, even in Louisiana) will never patronize his restaurant again. Hope he’s laid on a grease-carbs-and-salt menu for the fatassed gun fetishists who will now form his sole clientele.
