When we got home from Leavenworth Sunday morning, we decided to get some take-out from the Brown Bag Cafe in Redmond. GOOOOD food!

We had called previous to getting there so the order would be ready. I went in of course OC'ing. Stood there for about 5 minutes while others paid for their food. I paid and turned to leave. There was a woman sitting nearby who then looked up from my sidearm and smiled /nodded. I returned the smile.
Outside there were about 6-7 younger folks being loud and messing around while waiting for a table. When I opened the door and walked outside it got completely quiet. All the people immediately sat down. As I walked around the corner to my car, it was still quiet as could be there.
Rather than firearms causing death and misery, I think it causes good manners!
