The one man band in Pleasant Grove decided that they did not like the fact that I was open carrying. They asked me when we placed our order if I would cover up. I told them that I would just take my business elsewhere and that I would not visit their establishment again. I will also send an email to the owner and explain my feelings on this matter. I have been to the one in Lehi and have never been asked to leave or cover up. I am really disappointed in their choice. I thought you might want to know that they appose open carry.

To whom it may concern,
Tonight I went to the restaurant in Pleasant Grove. We sat down and picked up the phone to order. When my wife finished placing our order, the young man on the phone asked if I was the one carrying a firearm openly. My wife said that I was and the young man then asked if I would cover it up. Now I do have a current Utah Conceal Permit and could cover legally. However, if I did not have one then your employee would be requesting for me to break state law. I am extremely disappointed with this. I have frequented the Lehi store many times while open carrying and not had any problems whatsoever. I am also concerned that if a police officer were to enter the store if the same employee would ask them to cover up. If they would not then that is a double standard. I have a bachelors degree in criminal justice/law enforcement and am waiting to attend the academy to become a police officer. As a Utah Concealed Permit holder, I am subject to a daily criminal check and have been through an extensive FBI background check and found to be trustworthy enough to carry a loaded firearm even to a school as a substitute teacher. How much do you know about your other customers especially the criminal that may be concealing illegally. As per my disappointment I am therefore not going to frequent any of your restraints again. I have also let all of the other open carriers and permit holders in Utah the situation and urged them to take their money to other 2nd amendment friendly establishments. Good luck in your endeavors.
Sincerely,
