[QUOTE="David2012, post: 1928778, member: 24428"] Geesh, I don't live close enough to attend... but how is a group of friendly people who are openly carrying and were specifically invited by the managment of the establishments to gather for a OC celebration.. differ from individuals walking in to a resturant that permits OC and suddenly noticing a number of their friends who also OC are already there and joins them by pushing a few tables together? What are they suppose to do, ignore their friends? Are they suppose to say, 'Oh, I can't sit with you or act like I know you because we have open carry weapons!' Heck, a lot of resturants give discounts to armed police officers, sheriffs, and security officers so they will eat in their places... as it is cheaper than hiring security... and the discounted food can be a tax write-off. In OC states, OCers are often encouraged to eat in places for the same reason... as it is cheaper than hiring private security officers. I didn't read anything in the new SDA law restricting people from open carrying in groups. In fact, public parks & fair grounds where people often gather together in large groups of friends for celebrations / parties & family reunions was specifically designated by our politicians as being a lawfull location for OCers to gather. Churches are also places where groups of OCers can gather to worship.... It isn't like a group of OSA or OKOCA OCers will be standing in the middle of the street or on the sidewalks daring people to crowd their way past them. By-the-way, the 'Walmart Strut' starts exactly at Midnight on Nov. 1st. With the Open carry crowd coming into the store as the drunk costumed Halloween crowd leaves. :P [/QUOTE]
