Breitbart Meetup Ends with Police Chopper Overhead
breitbart.com ^ | 10/23/15

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.

Read the entire article.

The event started out fine. After things got going, apparently one of the non Breitbart customers got offended over the content of the program and complained to the management. The manager claimed they were attacked and threatened by someone in our group, so they called the police claiming 200 unruly patrons. I personally spoke to the sergeant who responded with the other numerous officers and the Phoenix PD helicopter and he was so apologetic after realizing it was all about nothing. Had the manager actually been assaulted and threatened don’t you think someone would have been arrested? Obviously they lied. Otherwise I met some really nice people and look forward to the next event. Hopefully no police next time or uninformed liberal idiots.

If that is true then the manager should foot the bill for the deployment.

The attendees went nuts, attacked the cops and are in the process of burning the city down, right? No? Oh, sorry, I was thinking of Black Lives Matter. My bad.

Looks like the cops, after finding the facts, sided with the good guys. So no need to struggle as far as I can see.

It’s not the cops’ fault. The article says the cops were as puzzled as the restaurant’s dissed patrons. I hope conservatives boycott the restaurant intimate bankruptcy.

It sounds like the Phoenix PD handled the situation well considering the confusion.

Do visit Yelp! The restaurant is getting hammered! You can up vote comments without registering.

Based on the social media outrage, that sign will soon be replaced with an “out of business” sign. Good.
