At a national level if we can can possibly hurt them at the bottom line, maybe companys can understand that a 30.06 will cause them pain.
How does it help to boycott restaurants that don't ban concealed carry?

Taking money away from the corporation.
What was the ditty?
"First they came for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up, because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time there was no one left to speak up for me."

I sure won't mind boycotting them, but why?

They're owned by the same corporation.
All Carrabbas, except for the original. That one is still family owned iirc.

Now if you try to protest Rudy's barbeque, then we're gonna have an issue.
Wait, no we're not, more for me!

Hey now, no need to protest them as far as I know.. except for the cost of that plastic iced tea cup.
However, you get cheap refills if you bring it back... i just never remember to.

Dudley's Cajun in Longview has a sign that says "We love our CHL guests, CHL happily welcome" or something to that effect.

They own all of these:
- Blue Coral Seafood & Spirits,
Bonefish Grill,
Carrabba's Italian Grill,
Cheeseburger in Paradise,
Lee Roy Selmon's,
Outback Steakhouse in the United States,
Roy's Hawaiian Fusion,
Fleming's Prime Steakhouse
We only have the Outback and Carraba's, that I know of. I agree that both Saltgrass and Texas Roadhouse are better. Love Saltgrass' bone in ribeye.
We could start passing out the cards mentioned in this thread:

There is a link in it that TSRA sells them.
