I have been to a couple of Waffle Houses (Homes?) :) and noticed that they do have signage stating that no firearms are allowed. Now the interesting point about these signs are that they are usually on a large metal sign near the top right corner of the restaurant on the side you enter on. Along with the no skateboarding, loitering and others. Where some may argue it is not posted correctly, as it is easily missed, it is posted... Take from this what you may.

I am thinking one place to visit would be BoJangle's on 54/55 in Durham. Some of you know that I have been having a part time fight with BoJangle's management in Raleigh as they are all posted no firearms. They state that their legal department suggest putting them up as it should make the restauarants safer. I guess that's why the BoJangle's on Tarboro Rd. was paying for a uniformed officer to be there fulltime at night for a few years.

However, the BoJangle's on 54/55 only posts No Concealed Firearms. Not sure how they would know if it was truly concealed. Again, a different argument. Maybe we should go there and show the Raleigh BoJangle's that just the presence of a firearm makes for a dangerous situation.

Can someone confirm the proposed Waffle House isn't posted prior to the meet?

Eveyone, I'm new to the group and am loving the forum. 

I've eaten at the BoJangle's at 40/42 many times and haven't seen a "no firearms" sign.  Come to think of it I've also visited the one on Highway 64 in Cary as well.  I don't recall seeing one there either. 

I make a point to check for these as I also have a CHP.  Where the heck are they posting them?  Do I need glasses??  :cool:

The BoJangle's in Raleigh have them all posted on the outside door or somewhere on the glass near the doors, along with no skateboards, no loitering, etc...  If you are not seeing them in other locations, that is good.  More for my continued fight with the local BoJangle's....

I checked the Bojangle's on Western Blvd. yesterday and they have a sign posted saying "NO CONCEALED WEAPONS", which of course means it won't affect any of our plans. :D  And since I haven't heard a reply, I'll check Waffle House today, also.

Waffle house has a no firearms sign over the grill once you walk inside.

We will need to change locations for the meeting on the 7th.
Do I have any proposals?

I definitely approve of Crazy Fire.  Sure it's $15 after tip, but definitely well worth it.

Crazy Fire sounds good to me.  I assume we are talking about the one off Buck Jones in Cary.

Correct.  Another meet in Cary sounds good, with the 'ordinance' and all.

Sorry guys, I won't be able to make it to this months meeting.  I have to go with my g/f to visit some of her family this weekend.

I really want to do this as well, especially if it's in Cary, but I'll be in the UK on business.  I hope you guys choose Cary again in the near future.  Would look forward to meeting some of you.

 Do you have dates set?

I would be happy to post on my web site.

http://www.concealnc.com

I would do what I can to bring folks, or maybe host an event in Salisbury or Kannapolis areas too.

I for one would love to work on getting some of the laws changed.

Let me know what you think about the idea. steeley@carolina.rr.com

My wife and I are on for this Weekend at Crazy Fire.  She's been looking forward to it for some time now.

It will be her first carry experience, OC or CC, so I expect her to have the usual "everybody's looking at me" jitters.

She is going to love it + wives and GFs or extremely good advertising.  Its a win-win.
