Virginia Beach, Va. – Slice by slice, one Virginia Beach pizza shop is showing its support for the Second Amendment by offering fifteen percent off pies to gun owners.

“All they have to do is show me that they’re carrying a weapon or they can show me their concealed weapons permit and they can get the discount,” says All Around Pizza owner, Jay Laze.

Laze started the offer after a Utah frozen yogurt shop made headlines earlier this month for also giving gun toters discounts.

“I thought it was a great idea and I was wondering why nobody here was doing it,” he says. “It should be happening all around the country.”

So far, Laze says the response has been great. Brendan Kelly openly carries his handgun and says it’s nice to see a business appreciate customers like him.

“It’s part of our rights as Americans and everybody should be entitled to the option if they want to, so it’s nice to have an incentive,” Kelly says.

Laze openly carries himself, and his support for gun ownership is incorporated throughout his business.

“I actually hire delivery drivers that do carry openly,” he says.

An armed society is a polite society.

Certainly must cut down on attempted robberies of his delivery drivers. Might even increase their tips.:D

Nice. If I lived there I'd eat pizza all the time.

Hell yea. What an awesome idea.

[RM918]

And here I thought offering a discount to people who show you they have a weapon is the typical thing to do.

[Aeroneous]

Not too big on the idea of showing my concealed carry weapon, but I don't mind flashing the permit. I don't care if the pizza sucks, I'd still eat there!

I hope these businesses set an example and others will follow.

Same here... I would just show him my permit. Mad props to this guy :)

I hope it works out for him...personally I wouldn't make the people who don't carry guns to pay 15% more....I guess they probably wouldn't like it either.

Could not figure out how to embed the video, so here's the link:

According to their website, (http://www.allaroundpizza.com), they hold bi-monthly liberty meetings.

My favorite part of the video is at the end; look to the top left.

Virginia has a quirk in its gun laws that might apply here. I don't know if All Around Pizza serves alcohol or not, but in Virginia, you cannot drink alcohol in a restaurant while carrying a concealed handgun. You have to open-carry. Just FYI in case you want to have a beer with your pizza.

This is great news. Hopefully more businesses across America start offering discounts to gun owners.

When Virginia Beach pizza owner Jay Laze heard about a Utah frozen yogurt shop that gave discounts to gun carrying customers (http://gawker.com/5985302/pizza-shop-gives-out-discount-to-gun-owners-who-flash-their-weapon-inside-store) in celebration of the Second Amendment, he didn't think that it seemed unsafe. Rather, Laze told local station WTKR, (http://wtkr.com/2013/02/15/virginia-beach-pizza-shop-offering-discount-to-gun-owners/) "I thought it was a great idea, and I was wondering why nobody here was doing it. It should be happening all around the country."
And that's how All Around Pizzas and Deli, which boasts delivery guys who carry guns (http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-201_162-57569993/gun-owners-get-a-discount-at-va-pizza-shop/), started giving 15 percent off to people who were carrying or flashed their permit.

Yeah, as soon as my open carry holster comes in the mail i'll be taking a trip up there for some discounted pizza :)

[SilenceDewgooder]

Why is this in "General Politics" instead of "Activism"?

[sluggo]

Good for him. I'll definitely stop in to eat next time I'm in town.
