While I completely agree with everything PAPatriot did, I really think everyone here should watch this video produced by a Regent law professor. Think twice before EVER speaking with law enforcement (other than giving your name). http://www.regent.edu/admin/media/schlaw/LawPreview/

I sent them email to the old country buffet corp. office. This is what i had said.

I was at a dinner at the ocb in dickson city this past friday night. It was a
bunch of gun guys getting together for a meet and greet type dinner. During this
meal the police showed up. They were investigating a man with a gun report. Up
to the time the police had presented themselves the dinner was very uneventful.
No one at the ocb in question had any issue with the presence of a gun openly
displayed or conceal.The management was very supportive of us even after the
police came and hauled all of the guest with guns outside.
This group had the intention of visiting this location last night. There is now
a sign on the door that no firearms are allowed.

I would like to say that post this typw of sign in Pa. means nothing. A person
can still come into your place. You must then ask him to leave. If he refuses
then he could be charged with trespass. The sign is just a warning. It does not
obsolve you from needing to talk with the person.

If this is now your policy I will not be returning to your establishment. There are approximately 54000 people who are licensed to carry a firearm
concealed in the sate of Pa. this does not include the people who may decide to
carry openly. "Pa. is an open carry sate". Are you sure you wish to exclude all
of those people from your business?

I generally dislike lawyers but the one on WILK right now is doing a great job explaining all of the involved issues to the host Sue Henry (who sounds genuinely interested in learning).

I have to admit, I never understood the OC get togethers. Now the need and purpose is obvious. "A right unexercised is a right lost". Can't wait for the next one, hope to be able to attend.

I am ready, willing and able to join a letter writing campaign, but I am going to wait for Rich's guidence. Don't want to jeopardize the pending legal actions.

I am glad I was able to give Corbett a piece of my mind (Nate from Lancaster), but I wish I thought through my follow up email a bit more. I did OC later that afternoon—and NO ONE noticed a damn thing. If they did, they didn’t freak out, and I was around the establishment long enough for the cops to show up, had anyone called 911. Unfortunately, that Jackass twisted my email like an old rag.

I will be contributing to PAFOA.org--someone has got to fight for our rights (count me in!).

I can't wait to contribute to the PA Patriot legal defense fund AKA the "let the schooling begin" fund. Give 'em NASTRAND Rich!

I think your estimate of the numbers of PA residents with a LTCF is off by a factor of ten. The estimate I read a while back was that it was over 500,000.
