I discovered this weekend that Skyline Chili does not support concealed carry. So I just emailed their corporate office to express my opinion and to inform them that I will no longer support their business until their policy is changed. Here is a copy of the email I sent:
Hello,
My name is Ryan C*****, and I have been a big supporter of Skyline Chili my whole life. Unfortunately, we don't have a Skyline near my college, so it is a special treat to go to Skyline when I go home.
This past weekend, I went home for the first time this semester. Naturally, I went to Skyline. As I walked in, I noticed a no firearms sign on the door. I am licensed to carry a concealed firearm, and had to return to my truck and lock my gun away. Concealed Carry is a very important issue to me, and I believe that law abiding citizens should not be restricted. I am trained, had an FBI background check, and been licensed to carry. A "No Gun" sign will not stop a criminal. It only restricts, and endangers the law abiding citizens.
I am extremely torn here. I love Skyline Chili, but I will stand up for my beliefs. So, until Skyline's policy on Concealed Carry changes, I will no longer be supporting your business, nor will I recommend it to anyone else. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.

I think this is fairly concise and expresses my thoughts well enough without becoming long winded, but your opinions are welcome. If I receive a reply, I will post it! Thanks!
