A Breitbart meetup in Arizona ended with a restaurant cutting off the microphone before a police helicopter strangely descended upon the gathering ordering attendees to disperse.
In an effort to provide offline fellowship to a community of passionately engaged readers, Breitbart News recently introduced Breitbart local “Meet Ups.”
The second event, held in Phoenix on Wednesday night, featured Breitbart’s Brandon Darby discussing border issues and AWR Hawkins discussing gun rights. Between 150-200 people flooded the patio on a cool night at K O’Donnell’s to discuss matters of liberty and network with other like-minded conservatives.
For the first 45 minutes of the pre-organized event conservatives networked while ordering food and drinks. There was already a great sense of camaraderie among the crowd when Breitbart’s Community Liaison Dustin Stockton began the program by asking God to steer the conversation towards solutions that would combat the agents of greed and corruption that infest our government and media.
Second Amendment “journalist of the year” AWR Hawkins gave the first speech of the evening. He spoke with the enthusiastic attendees about guns, and the American tradition of freedom.
SNIP: And that’s when the restaurant managers got snippy.

It would be nice to get a hold of police communication during the event. Who cut the mic? Who called the cops, and for what reason?
Americans who talk about God and guns are most likely terrorists in this day and age.
God Help America.
Good post Anonymous: Larry F,Robert M, David M, and others confirmed my suspicion. PC asswipe management.
They should change the name of the place to The Daily K O’s.
Just more libtard paranoia at work.
It sounds like the ‘management’ shut the event down.
Maybe they should have told them what they were up to beforehand. I’m sure another venue would have happily accommodated them.

With any luck next year they’ll have to invest in a leather bar and serve up gay umbrella drinks with whipped cream on top…
PC MUST come to an end.
There goes their business.
It will only end when the tender little twinkies have to fight and scrape for a morsel of food. No more digital fantasyland.
I hope you’re right Billy F.
Same question!! I am stuck in Hollywood for at least another year, maybe two, and I am just dying for some conservative company. I am not a “Friends of Abe” level person, i.e., I’m a peon and not in the entertainment industry, so I am having real trouble out here in la la land. Example: my neighbors have openly mocked me for being a Christian, yet THEY BELIEVE IN CAT PSYCHICS. Yes. They think cat psychics are a real thing, and that a woman who charged them $100 for communicating with their cat had a actual conversation with it.
Wife will be visiting Phoenix all next week, after showing her this, she and others will not be visiting Kommie O’s establishment.
Doubt they will experience the surge of business that Chick-fil-A did.

Lifetime boycott right there. The comment I tried to post on their yelp page (or whatever that’s called) disappeared right after I posted it. But there are still plenty of others showing there with a one-star rating because of their conservative-bashing tactics.
They owe the Breitbart people a refund for cutting the mic. Not at all a smart business move.
One of my ex-girlfriends does a lot of work in Hollywood, and she has a friend like that who “communicates” with animals. She also hates my NRA hat. lol.
You have my sympathy, Tired Mom, and I hope you can get out of that place very soon. Moving from L.A. to Arkansas felt pretty good. 🙂
Hopefully, in AZ there is at least one sympathetic attorney.
Only legitimate reason I can think is that the number of people assembled exceeded the maximum number allowed for safety, per the determination of the local fire department.
Unless restaurant management lied. Somehow, I can’t see the cops responding to a report of “people hanging on every word of a prom Second Amendment speaker.”
I got the impression that somebody complained to the manager that they were offended by the group. And I’d bet that same complainer did a “swatting” maneuver and called the cops from a pay phone with some kind of BS story.
A comment from one of the people who were there stated that the police seemed a little confused when they got there and didn’t find whatever it was they were expecting.
The Left always uses the fighting tactics of a coward.
Next time they should rent a VA Hall and serve sandwiches catered by Chik-Fil-A. Life is challenging enough without having to deal with hostile vendors.
and so it begins…..
Cannot wait to get back to flyover country!
The story at Breitbart was that they went across the street to the gun club to continue the meeting!
“continues” might be the better word choice…
There is NO legitimate reason for this. An armed chopper ordering peaceful diners to disburse? WTF? But stupid, violent pavement apes and commies committing arson, robbery, assault, etc. don’t merit this? This country is DEAD. Rule of law is DEAD and we better get fucking busy on our side of this war.
This.
After reading several of the articles on this, sounds like it was a, “Swatting,” call. The owners should be charged with filing a false report.

Tell her Breitbart is here
Sorry VFW hall.
Libtard spell checker!
yup, there’s plenty of fukAmerica framework to fundamentally transform even more
Sounds like a prime opportunity to make some side pocket money as a (fill-in-the-blank-animal) psychic, at the Libtard’s expense. And laugh all the way to the bank.
