Meeting was well attended and saw a lot of interest. Got to keep this ball moving and get increasing numbers on board - therein lies the strength.
I heard considerable conversation about campus and personal safety - we all know where that leads......to individual responsibility and the right to defend oneself. No one should ever be denied that right, not ever!
It was a start.
Probably shouldn't discuss the conversation with Tom (Owner) other than to say I wouldn't eat there if it was free food.
The VCU students were energetic, a little naive about how to win this fight, but receptive to ideas.
Proshooter was there to give guidance about CHP's and training. He had a very good conversation with several VCU students about becoming instructors and advanced training he offers.
Grapeshot had down to earth recommendations and help VCDL could offer. That's probably the key to campus carry.
VCDL President was there. Couldn't say what he discussed with them.
I was there to observe only but I did get a chance to talk to a few of them outside. Overall, I was impressed with a few exceptions.
Like I said, it's a start and they did say they would find a better Venue for the next meeting.
