DES MOINES, Iowa – While many retail businesses around the country have taken up the trend of plastering “no guns allowed†signs on their front doors, one national restaurant chain has boldly declared the right to bear arms key to what makes this nation “great.â€

Denny’s restaurants, a diner chain famous for being open every hour of every day, earlier this month released a commercial titled “Greatness,†which asks what makes America great, only to answer with – among other things – the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

“Kids,†the father in the commercial asks after receiving a “Midwestern Meat & Potatoes Sandwich†he’s clearly admiring, “do you know what it is that makes this country great?

“The Constitution our forefathers wrote?†asks his daughter in return.

“Our unified belief in the American dream?†his son suggests.

The other customers in the restaurant then get in on the act, while strains of patriotic music play in the background.

“Our melting-pot heritage that proves our differences really are our strengths?†a man proposes.

“It’s our right to bear arms!†insists an elderly lady, referring to the wording of the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment.

“Yes!†says the father, clearly covering his embarrassment at the profundity of answers offered to his question, which he initially asked about his … sandwich. “Those are some of the great things I was thinking of, as well.â€

The commercial ends on a lighter note, with the man’s daughter holding up her teddy bear and asking in confused tone, “Bear arms?â€

I have noticed some networks have removed the reference to Second Amendment....

[Guest 6.8 AR]

That's positive!

That's kinda funny. My sister had a gun pulled on her in a Denny's bathroom. I am not blaming Denny's or anything; I just thought it was a funny coincidence.

I would have guessed Waffle House.

I doubt the network is allowed to edit the commercial at will. More likely they asked Denny's to edit a non-gun version.

I thought he did a good job as well. Great commercial, I always liked Denny's now even more so.

[Guest bkelm18]

I saw the "edited" version earlier on G4.

[Guest bkelm18]

I actually just saw the unedited version of the commercial. On BBC America no less.

I wish there was a Denny's closer to Nashville, than Bowling Green, KY.

I think there's one in Fairview.

I think there's one in Fairview.

You know, for Denny's the one here ain't half bad. It IS Denny's mind you, but it ain't bad.

[jumprun13k]

There is one in Fairview.

While I applaud Denny's I am pretty ticked that there are networks (assuming it is the networks causing it) that are making them do a version without the 2nd amendment part. I would like to know which are and are not so I can make my displeasure known.

I am glad you posted this. Seems I had seen the edited version as well. I like this one much better.

[Ramjo]

Every time I see a Denny's I think of Tim Allen in The Santa Claus movie

[Guest Grout]
