VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP) — A Virginia Beach pizza shop owner is showing his support for firearm rights by giving gun owners a 15 percent discount.

The discount is given to anyone who brings a gun or concealed handgun permit to All Around Pizzas and Deli.

Owner Jay Laze tells news media outlets that he'd planned on offering the discount for a limited time. But he says the response has been overwhelming and he might make it permanent.

Since the discount began last Friday, Laze says 80 percent of his customers have brought guns into the pizza shop. He says one customer came in with an AK-47.

Laze is a gun owner and says he's always been a supporter of the right to carry firearms.

if i was in Virginia Beach, i'd stop in and buy the owner a beer

    does he give a student discount? does he give a senior citizen discount? if he doesn't, yet he gives gun owners a discount, something is wrong with this guy.

    why? because he is supporting something he believes in?

    because he's encouraging people to bring guns into a pizza place, would sure as hell keep me far away
    I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!

    All the more power to him.

    I would see that discount and take my business elsewhere, but I applaud him standing up for what he believes in...even if it is something stupid like guns.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    It's just kind of insane to be pleased about filling your restaurant with diners packing heat. There is making a point, and then there is doing stupid shit. This is just stupid shit.

    it doesn't bother me. what others chose to do w/ there time & what they consider a fun eating out experience & whatnot is none of my business. he probably made a decent profit.

    guaranteed many cops, sheriff deputies & other lawmen & law women dined on pizza as did private citizens who target practice or hunt.

    if you don't like don't show up, mind your own business & go about picking your nose or whatnot. this advertising & sales strategy is only that. it means nothing except 15% for bringing in your gun for the pizza coupon

    I think he should have another promotion: the pizzeria should have one of those prize spin wheels that every hour a random customer gets to spin. The wheel could be in the shape of a revolver cylinder and to initiate the spin... one would have to pull back the hammer.

    The prizes could be varied, but it goes without saying that many of the slots would be reserved for pizza stuff (free garlic bread, free soft drink, free pizza on your next visit) and other stuff (targets, leftover Mitt Romney hats, fanny packs).

    The grand prize could even be a gun. They could make a tradition that if anyone spins the cylinder and wins the grand prize... everybody shoots their guns in the air and yells "yee haw".

    Agreed.
