You know, I asked that same question on OCDO, and boy, did the fireworks fly . I got flamed by several people who who wanted to know why I would ask "permission" to exercise gun rights, and one guy ended up all but calling me a 'narc' for because he thought I was going to call the restaurant and the police and try and get the event canceled.

One of the better OCDO guys (ed) went and OC'ed there recently and had a uneventful experience.

I believe the current count is about 50 confirmed and 30 more "maybe"s.

Peace

I wouldn't worry about it. If the owners throw a hissy fit, we can go elsewhere. There's a couple of other good places within reasonable driving distance from there (5-10min) that are typically fine with OC(meaning I frequent them myself and haven't been thrown out yet).

I wasn't worried about getting kicked out, I was simply stunned at the vitriol I received for giving some consideration to the restaurant owner/manager. I'm sure I've been kicked out of better places .

By the way, packinnova, it's a little early, but Happy Birthday!

Well I called today and spoke with A manager, not the GM, but a manager by the name of Mindy and they (they being her) seemed to be unaware that the gathering is going to be an armed party, but they are now aware and are OK with it.


See y'all on Saturday.
