Qanon Republicans--gun girl in Colorado

Both of those things are true. You don't get to work at the Shooter's Cafe (as a server) unless you're willing to carry a gun while on the job, and Boebert, in her successfully primary bid, made several public appearances in which she prominently displayed a pistol strapped to her leg. It's all about gun nuttery, which is a big seller in that part of the country. Boebert is also an enthusiastic Qanon member.

 

I don't know if David Miller belongs to Qanon, but it sounds like his type of organization.

Article from the Denver Post -Tourists, on the other hand, travel thousands of miles to check out the restaurant. Boebert said she has served customers that have driven from Canada, as well as other international travelers who planned a layover in Denver — on their way West for vacation — to eat at her diner.

I really, really doubt that ANYONE travels "thousands of miles" just to eat at her diner. Really? That far, for a meal (with guns)? Sounds like hyperbole. Boebert, after all, is a politician stumping for a Congressional seat.

 

I don't doubt that the restaurant is popular. There is no shortage of sick gun fetishists in the world. And the food might be good.

One time I traveled over a thousand miles and ate at a popular restaurant called.... McDonalds.


But surely you didn't have to travel that far just to find one!

 

The Gun Love Cafe in Rifle might be popular simply because when you're plodding along I-70 between Grand Junction and Denver, there aren't that many towns or places to stop and eat. Of course, it could also be because people want to fantasize about killing someone while they munch their pancakes.

 

The farthest I've ever traveled just to eat at a restaurant was about 100 miles to a crab shack in Maryland. Worth the trip!
