What else would you expect from the "Left" Coast?

yes, i'm all over it, i am a big advocate for the abolition of the TSA. and my incident was in august of 2010 so i had no warning, it hadn't hit the media yet that people were being groped. i would have taken the option they offered of turning around and walking out of "their" checkpoint, but i was on my honeymoon...
when i stood up for myself and politely got in the agent and supervisors faces, my wife was worried for a minute we wouldn't be flying at all. she supports me though and knows that we will not fly again until the TSA is abolished. i will not subject myself, my beautiful wife and daughter to such indignities.

i wish that i had a cafe, so i could kick out every cop that is OCing. except i would like to do it with a gun on my own hip.
is it legal to allow some people to OC and not others? as a private property owner, do you legally have to have the same rules for everyone or can you randomly tell people they cannot carry in your business? would this open you up to lawsuits for discrimination?

That story seems more fiction than fact, from the attempts to verify it I tried. Found this, which calls it into serious question:
http://www.elliott.org/blog/wheres-the-cafe-that-refuses-to-serve-the-tsa/
Also, searching on the name of the person reported there and other relevant search terms pulls up nothing giving credibility.
Do you have any info verifying this story?

If I was the police chief, I would make sure that no police officer ever set foot again in that store again - in order to respect the owner's wishes.
I would also suggest to the owner that he hire some private security, as the Supreme Court had already decided over 100 years ago that the police do not have a responsibility to protect the individual citizen, and since he didn't want the police on his property, we'd be happy to oblige.

No, you have the right to pick and choose, you have the right to refuse service to anyone. If that were not true, buisinesses wouldnt be able to kick out OCers.

Sure you could.
Bass pro had an OCer last year that was acting up, and they kicked him out, (some mistakenly thought it was me because Im a regular there), but they welcome me with open arms, some call me by name.

no, that's why i said this:
"i saw that, the deli remains un-named. i wish we knew if it were true or not. i would write them a thank you note expressing my full support."

This might be the Left coast, but in Oregon you can own fully automatic rifles and silencers!

We can have automatics here too, but you got us on suppressors.

True, but you're still too close to Californicated for my taste.
