On Monday
Chipotle Mexican Grill
in response
to the 10,000-signature
Moms Demand Action
for Gun Sense petition
prompted by several gun aficianados
bringing loaded semi-automatics
into a Dallas restaurant
made the decision
to ban gun-carrying customers
from the premises.
It seems unlikely
that our Founding Fathers
intended our right to bear arms
to extend to conscionably-delicious
Mexican chain restaurants
but then again
they didn't have to worry
about servers
skimping on the guac
in their carnitas burrito bowls.
