Andy11M sends us a link to an article<\/a> about an off-duty policeman who was refused service at an Olive Garden restaurant because he was carrying his weapon while celebrating his birthday;<\/p>\n

Officer Michael Holsworth was visiting the Olive Garden on 40 Highway and Noland Road in Independence for a birthday lunch with his family.<\/p>\n

Holsworth was dressed in a full police uniform and was waiting for his family to arrive when an employee allegedly told him that it does not allow guns inside the restaurant.<\/p>\n

The officer asked the employee if she was serious, and she told him she was.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, I can leave, I guess,\u201d Holsworth replied.<\/p>\n

The employee replied back, \u201cYes, please leave.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to the article, the President of Olive Garden apologized to the officer. I’m not aware of any policy at Olive garden forbidding weapons. I’ve been in the OG in Winchester, VA a few times and I haven’t seen a sign. <\/p>\n

If anyone wonders why a police officer should carry his gun, there’s the story from Cordova, Tennessee about Memphis PD’s Terence Olridge<\/a> who was on his way to work when he was shot multiple times by a neighbor while wearing his uniform. <\/p>\n

Olridge had been on the force for slightly more than a year and had a fiancee who is four months pregnant, authorities said.<\/p>\n

Dozens of people posted condolences for the slain cop on Facebook. Posts to the Blue Lives Matter Memphis page also called for support for the Memphis Police Department; Olridge is its second officer to be killed in just over two months.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
