A Seattle ice cream parlor is telling police officers they can’t have guns inside their shop.
Fox News reports:
A popular Seattle ice cream parlor located near the former Capitol Hill Organized Protest, or CHOP, is asking police officers to leave their guns outside.
“Police officers,” the sign reads in the window of the Capitol Hill Molly Moon’s Homemade Ice Cream shop. “Molly Moon’s is a gun free zone. Please do not come inside if you are wearing a firearm.”
