A Louisiana-based restaurant has drawn some publicity by giving gun carriers a discount of 10 percent on their meal and serving Cajun food.

Bergeron's Restaurant owner Kevin Cox, who came up with the idea as a way to thank law enforcement officers who go to the restaurant, said that as long as everybody has a gun they are all the same size, when other gun-carrying customers started asking for discount too, Sky News reported.

Cox says, who gives out about 15 to 20 discounts each day, added that he wanted to take an opposite approach to make his place safer, since, he keeps hearing so much about people banning guns and target's banning guns without realizing that that's where people with guns are going to go.
