Dinner at Leesburg's Giovanni's NY Pizza - Monday 5/19 7PM

One of the group at Tony's in Manassas had eaten in there while OCing. More than once.
We all know how that turned out once a customer complained to the police. It wasn't the management who called the police. But once the police showed up and caused a scene, then management decided to eject the OC'ers.
Rather than hope it is uneventful, why not pick a place where you are well known to the staff and can speak to them about your OC guests before the event. Or check with management. Or, have your damage-control plans well-laid in advance.

It sounds as though the plans, especially with the reporter, are made. It would seem prudent, though,to check with the owner ahead of time to let him know that he will be in the papers... and WHY. I would not expect L'burg to roust us, as they did in Manassas, but it would NOT look nice in the news article!

IF the plans are not so firm, then going to another, definitely gun-friendly place, would be prudent, for the sake of the reporter and her subsequent article (I can imagine what the average editor would do to the story, if we WERE rousted!). Same place as last time?

I normally OC in L'burg, but, as someone said, one guy carrying is not the same as 5-10 guys carrying.

Just to show you that I mean what I say, I do not plan to bring any machine guns or rocket launchers to dinner. :lol:

They DO have anchovies, don't they?

One person carrying is not 4-6 people carrying.

What I like to see and I've been in this game more than a day now, is new faces. A whole group OCers that I've never encountered at any of our various events, really is a good sign that our ranks our growing.
