Once again I remind the gentle reader:
I'm the Sheeple, and people cater to my fear...
especially when those I fear act incredibly stupidly...
and contrary to their own interests.

More grist to the aniti's mill.

Actually Chilli's asked if it's customers would leave their Long Guns at home and later asked to not carry open in their place of business. CC is still good to go as far as I know.

Sonic asked it's customers to leave their firearms in their vehicles if they were going to enter the building or the outdoor patios. Open and CC are a No go inside.
 
It is worth being precise about what the companies have said:

"We recognize that the open carry of firearms in restaurants creates an uncomfortable atmosphere and is not permitted under many local liquor laws," Chili’s Dallas-based parent said in statement. "So, we kindly ask that guests refrain from openly carrying firearms into our restaurants and we will continue to follow state and local laws on this issue."

The Oklahoma-based Sonic said: "We've considered the views and desires of our customers and employees that staff the drive-ins across the country. Accordingly, we're asking that customers refrain from bringing guns onto our patios or into our indoor dining areas. With respect to the storage of guns in vehicles, we ask that our customers continue to honor local laws."

Never been to Chili's...this solves it for me. Now Sonic...I like Sonic, and as I'm sitting in MY vehicle, I'll continue to carry there. As to "....we ask that our customers continue to honor local laws...", the local laws recognize my right to carry....so I'm good there too.
