This Is Too Funny About Trejbal
I got my VCDL alert. The Times weasels refuse to be interviewed by CNN. HA!

I was interviewed about the recent Roanoke Times debacle by Kyung Lah
of CNN on Friday at Vinney's Italian Restaurant in Midlothian. The
restaurant was very hospitable, setting us up in a large corner so
that all the camera equipment could be spread out.
The interview went very well and was done professionally. Ms. Lah
asked some of the questions that were posed by Mr. Trejbal in his
article - such as, "Don't I have a right to know if you are carrying
a gun?"
I had been standing up talking to Ms. Lah for couple of minutes after
I arrived. She looked at me and said, "Since you have a concealed
handgun permit, aren't you allowed to transport a handgun?"
I said, "Yes."
She said, "Er, do you have one in the car then?"
I said, "No, but I have one on my hip."
A little embarrassed for not having noticed, she then looked down and
saw that I was open carrying.
I explained Virginia Law to her about having to open carry in
restaurants that have a license to sell and serve alcoholic beverages
for on-premises consumption.
THE ROANOKE TIMES AND CHRISTIAN TREJBAL ARE HYPOCRITES!
This is TOO good! I asked Ms. Lah if someone was going to interview
the Roanoke Times management and Christian Trejbal (the columnist who
wrote the story about Virginia 'sunshine' laws, and who obtained and
helped publish the CHP holder list).
Ms. Lah said that BOTH Mr. Trejbal AND the Roanoke Times Management
are REFUSING TO BE INTERVIEWED!!!!!!!!
What about all that 'sunshine,' you were celebrating Mr. Trejbal?
What about it Roanoke Times? Surely you would want to lead the way
by letting a little light shine on the damage that you did by
publishing the CHP holder list?
I got a real chuckle when she told me about their refusal.
I guess I have been doing this too long as I wasn't surprised. I
have dealt with people like Mr. Trejbal many times before.
ANOTHER VCDL MEMBER TO BE INTERVIEWED
Ms. Lah is also going to interview a parole officer who had THREE
parolees show up at his residence, one while only his wife and child
were at home! All three admitted to getting his address from the
list published on the Internet by the Roanoke Times.
THANKS TO THOSE OF YOU WHO VOLUNTEER THEIR STORIES
Thanks to those who volunteered to be interviewed. I shared your
stories with Ms. Lah and some of your emails will probably be used in
the story. Ms. Lah assured me that your name and other private or
identifying information will be redacted when emails are shown on
screen. Only the part of the email that talks about how your life
has been endangered will be highlighted and visible to make the point.
WATCH THE PAULA ZAHN SHOW ON MONDAY AT 8 PM!
The story is going to air THIS Monday at 8 PM EST on the Paula Zahn
show on CNN.
