But to go back (waaayy back) to the original point, er, WHY is the NRA opening a restaurant? I just don't see the connection. What has an organisation for rifle ownership/Satanic worshipping (delete as appropriate) got to do with yummy food? You don't see the NSPCC starting up cafe's in your local town, do you?
Or is this just because theUS is experiencing a restaurant shortage. Lord, imagine if you actually had to walk 30 paces before you could eat something. You all might keel over and die from starvation.

Now we can open a Klan restaurant on Times Square so we can suplant those negative "liberal" images of lynchings ect...with a kindler, gentler image of a caring civic organization.
No need for a bib with kids meals when you get the hood.
If the locals, liberals or not (which you just seem to assume they are), don't want an NRA restaurant in Times Square, I should imagine that all you anti-federal government types should support a local action to try and stop it.
Personally, I couldn't care less. Were it to be built it would not receive and orders for fries from me (I said FRIES not FIRE!)...just as that classy chain Hooters (sure it's about Owls) gets none of my business.
But then again, I'm sure someone will come up with some conspiracy that says the Clinton Administration is pulling strings to stop the restaurant from being built.

I wouldn't want to eat at an NRA restaurant either, or any theme restaurant for that matter. (Except of course a Star Trek one. Solidarity, brothers.) But I suppose they have as much reason to open one as a trio of supermodels do.

Omega, may I suggest that you may not have answered it to his satisfaction?

No. You may not. I will smite you if you even contemplate suggesting such a thing.
My explanation seems clear enough. The NRA has been given a false bad image. They are attempting to combat this image by opening a restaraunt, which will presumably have free brochures or something like that.

It'd really only be worth going to if you could shoot your own fowl, or goose or whatever the hell you're going to eat.
Like those places where you pick your lobster.
Hopefully someone will take the menu seriously and believe that a Heston burger is actually made of what it says it is.
