To Whom it may concern,

I will be eating lunch at Subway sub shop at 12370 Natural Bridge Road. on Sunday 2/27/11 at 12:30PM. Then going a across the street to take a picture of myself and any Open Carry-er who wishes to join me in front of the brand new Bridgeton city hall/police station. I do this for open carry awareness. Bridgeton has no specific laws governing OC. So you only need to meet state requirements for legal OC , but I can not guaranty my actions will be appreciated by local authorities, as well I do not claim responsibility for any unjust persecution you may receive for doing as I do.

If by chance the restaurant that I am going to eat lunch at choses to not want me there and I have to eat elsewhere I suggest that if you are joining me you should contact me for my cell number in advance.

yesterday we had a bbq for my brother birthday. we walked up to the meat market (ferguson) and got some hot dogs and walked back. i OC'd my sr9c.

when i got back to the house, my step dad asked if i was guarding the hot dogs.
thus i was dubbed the hot-dog protector

Good times

Bout time...

It was a nice meet up as usual. We had a conversation for about 20 min in there front of City Hall Funny thing, As people were leaving and there was just 2 of us left a LEO came out and curiously yelled across the parking lot "Who do you work for". I yelled back "Nobody just up here admiring your new government facility. Open carry is legal in your jurisdiction". He then calmly said "I know, I just saw all you guys had firearms and thought you may have been officers needing something." Then he turned around and went back inside.

Perfect LEO encounter. Came out to see if you needed assistance and went back to work, can't beat it.

I got called into work and couldn't make it. Sorry guys. I'm glad to hear everything went so well. Looks like we had more of a crowd this time.
