From the VA-ALERT

*******************************************
1. Video of Champps dinner in honor of Senator Richard "Banjo" Saslaw
now online!
*******************************************

As you might recall, Fairfax County Senator Saslaw told the Virginia
Senate that anyone who dared to open carry in a NoVA restaurant that
is licensed to serve alcoholic beverages would be asked to leave.

We knew that was baloney and had an AP reporter document a series of
luncheons and a dinner in NoVA, with VCDL members carrying openly as
required by law.

The video of the VCDL "Saslaw" dinner at Champps restaurant in
northern Virginia is now on the VCDL web site! Thanks to VCDL member
Matt Gottshalk for producing and editing the video - a professional
job as usual.

In the video you'll see the general manager of Champps speaking
first, followed by me, followed by Delegate Dick Black. Delegate
Black spoke on behalf of Senator Ken Cuccinelli, who had a prior
speaking engagement that evening.

You will also see Board member Bruce Jackson explaining briefly to
other guests in the restaurant why we were there that night, followed
by all the VCDL members raising their hands to indicate that they were
lawfully armed.

Just sent them an email thru their website

"I recently read an article about a Reston, VA location that had asked a group of people who were legally carrying firearms to leave. Although they were completely within their rights, and were actually making the restaurant safer, the manager/owner's bias overlooked their logic in this matter. I will make it a point not to eat at any of the Great American restaurants and will continue to spread the word about how they do not respect American's second amendment rights."
