Dear Owner,

Because of this: http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/forum54/21160.html
I will not dine in your restaurant when visiting the area.

The personyou 86'd isa personal friend.
He is a professional,intelligent, honest and respectful person.

What your Mgr did to him and his friends is shameful.
She should be charged with larceny and would be if that had been me.

As a property owner it is your right to be able to refuse service to anyone but to demand payment when no service was rendered is boorish.

VA Statelaw mandates that thoseofuswho choseto take personal responsibility for ourselves by legally carrying arms must do so openly in establishments that serve alcohol.


Generally speaking, someone carrying their firearm in a legal manner posses no threat to the public.
Criminals will not advertise their intent by openly carryingor abiding by your no gun rules, they are criminals.

It is you right to remove unwanted personsbut if you exercise your right to remove law abiding citizens that chose to carry for self defense I will exercise my right to patronize other establishments.

In this troubled economy I'm glad your business is doing so well you can turn away business.
Oh wait,I forgot your Mgr. stoletheir money.

Sincerely,
Agent19

I've actually ridden by there when I've been out riding on my motorcycle and was considering stopping for dinner the next time I was in the area. I'll mark that off my list unless, of course, they change their policy.
