Moral of the Story


If you open carry in a Staunton Virginia restaurant, don't go to the bafroom.

"Three guys came into the restaurant, and two of them had guns in their belts. And, I mean, they didn't look like undercover police. But then again, what does undercover police look like? But ... uh ... it just looks kind of odd. They kept getting up and going to the restroom and coming back and forth. They went to the restroom at least twice each. And I'm just a little concerned about it."

The 9-1-1 call was logged at 6:31 p.m. the evening of July 15.

The caller was a patron at Casa di Scotto's in downtown Staunton.

So here's three guys on their way home from the shooting range who stop and get a bite to eat. Obeying Virginia law, they open carry in the restaurant (because it's illegal to conceal their firearm).

Staunton's finest call the manager who says there isn't a problem, then show up any way just to hassle the guys. Listen to the 9-1-1 call yourself and see if it doesn't sound like they're just hoping there's a problem.


Comments

What strikes me as being strange is that the police stated that the owner wanted the firearms removed from the restaurant, but in the 911 call to the manager, she seemed to not be alarmed at all. If she was concerned, I could certainly understand her having some reservations about confronting armed patrons, but why would she not call the police herself? Could it be that the police fabricated this part? Makes one wonder what management of the restaurant might have to say about this.
