Pa. Patriot, You are the CHOSEN ONE!!!!! I can't say anything that hasn't been said already in all these pages, except I'll will be following this also here in Ohio. Good luck and have fun with this, it sounds like you will. Life lessons are the most important ones for our kids.

Having jack boot thugs show up due to some ignornant anti or irrationally panicked person, would just plain suck.

And yes whoever called the police last night should be ashamed of themselves for acting so irrational. I wonder if they stated false things to the 911 operator? How can it possibly be that a group of people acting peacefully with spouses and children be construed as a threat? Why didn't they just come up to one of you and ask what it is all about? Are they such a mental case hoplophobe they couldn't ask one of you, or better yet ask the restaurant manager?

From reading about VA open carry, it seems they have more problems with restaurant managers and owners than the general public, or if a patron calls the cops, the manager or owner sides with the complaintant.

Well if a legal fund is set up for this, count me in for some money. Go pound em!

Nothing to worry about, the owner is one of US!!!!!

I could see something like this happening at the Old Country Buffet where I live. The people who go there are mainly Pennsylvania Dutch and appear to be very stoic. Since it is a family oriented restaurant and parents can sometimes be so over protective of their children, it wouldn’t surprise me if someone has a negative reaction upon seeing someone with a gun. I go there once a week and every time I’m there it always seems like people are staring at me. Maybe it’s because my skin color isn’t chalky white and my hair color isn’t BILLY IDOL blond. Lol! I can only imagine if I walked in with a gun on my hip, everyone would be DIVING FOR COVER under the tables. I feel bad that this happened to y’all, but there is a reason for everything and surely something good is bound to come out of it. Hang in there, and keep up the good work!

They just stare because you are Dnar the Hawaiian stud!



As a former model myself, it just takes some getting used to

I can't help but think these "managers"/employees, etc are full of crap.
I call BS.
If someone was truly concerned they would call the POLICE.
I just can't see anyone going to find a manager of a store or restauraunt to complain about another patron's (that they know nothing about) OC.
I should say: possible? yes, likely? No. $.02

Bolding mine. I guess someone was concerned. Maybe even the same person the didn't like jahwarrior72 carrying in there.

Thank you Pa. Patriot for all you are doing to preserve our rights. I wish I could have been there. I would put my vote toward having an OC dinner at the Old Country Buffet again or at least holding it in Dickson City.

I didn't have my scanner on at the time this happened, but did any else have one on and hear the call?

No way...no apologizing at all.


It was good to meet you....I just wish it could have been under better circumstances.
