Some Virginia Businesses May Ban Armed Customers

Many Armed Customers May Take Their $$$ Elsewhere.

Both perfectly legal. Freedom works both ways.

One good way to do this is in a large group. If writing letters doesn't work, then get about 20 folks together, who are all open carrying, then show up and ask to be seated. See what the response is.

You can add an additional twist by having a few pro-RKBA folks go in right before the "big group", and then once the "big group" is asked to leave, the "smaller group" (not carrying) then speaks to the manager and explains to them that they are leaving since the restauarant doesn't recognize RKBA.

Alternatively, you can have most of the "big group" take their seats first (unarmed), then have a couple of guys come in openly carrying who join the group. Then when the restaurant asks them to leave, EVERYONE gets up and walks out.

There are so many variations that you can have fun with. Many business owners only care about $$$$, so that is the language you have to use when dealing with them. Most will take down their signs when they start losing $$$$.

Exactly, property owners have the freedom of choice on both sides of this issue.

Those choosing to ban good guys with guns from their establishments are insuring that the robbers and rapists out there know which potential victims are unarmed. I'll bet they are making a list of establishments as we speak.

Exactly true...I USED to eat lunch on occasion at that VERY restaurant in Franconia. Its not like it is some kind of high-class joint, fer crying out loud....."Bungalow Billiards and Brew".

Operative word "USED to".

Smoking...is still legal in every state..the last time I looked. Yet, many states have decided to "legislate" what private businesses can and cannot do on their premises. IF that's freedom....I'm Elmer Fudd.
