VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., Feb. 19 (UPI) -- A Virginia pizzeria is offering discounts to those carrying guns or concealed weapon permits as a show of support for the Second Amendment.

Jay Laze, owner of All Around Pizza in Virginia Beach, said he was inspired to offer 15 percent off to gun-toting customers by a similar promotion at a Utah frozen yogurt shop, WTKR-TV, Norfolk, reported Tuesday.

"I thought it was a great idea and I was wondering why nobody here was doing it," Laze said. "It should be happening all around the country."

"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."

Laze, who openly carries a gun, said he incorporates his views into his business.

"I actually hire delivery drivers that do carry openly," he said.
