I think you got a good point there with the AFFORD. And there is five now that I have a grandbabyAberdeen? I've heard of that place. There are like what, four people there? I don't think anyone in Grays Harbor County can AFFORD to tell a customer to leave, gun, no gun, or strange hippie crawled out of the woods.
They still use smoke signals there...Ahh! Now I understand. They are once of those towns lagging 20-30 years behind the rest of the country.
Just check the local radio stations to tell you what year they are in.

No, that would be The Evergreen State College. Or rather they would be Puffin' on something....sv_libertarian wrote:Ahh, puffin to the oldies.FMCDH wrote:They still use smoke signals there...Ahh! Now I understand. They are once of those towns lagging 20-30 years behind the rest of the country.

Morbo says DNP DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY!That's not how the DNP list works.
I know how it works, but it can also be a reminder to companies that don't allow guns in their place of business that there are honest good people avoiding spending their money because of a ridiculous policy that panders to the knee-jerk liberals.That's not how the DNP list works.
Agreed, the DNP list should be used to show the companies with anti-gun policies that they will lose money if they discriminate against citizens exercising their rights, as well as rewarding those who do support them.j2l3 wrote:I know how it works, but it can also be a reminder to companies that don't allow guns in their place of business that there are honest good people avoiding spending their money because of a ridiculous policy that panders to the knee-jerk liberals.That's not how the DNP list works.

However, there is no evidence so far that Ross has an anti-gun policy. So far it's just an a$$hat employee with a grudge. He would not/could not (because there probably isn't one) provide a copy of the "policy" that he was trying to enforce.
good work - finallya gun owner who declines private security suggestions and simply leaves the premises of unfriendly establishments. well done.My wife wanted to meet for lunch and she was at Ross's so I went there to meet her and decide where to eat.
A security gaurd was at the front door. I walked in we exchanged freindly greetings and I proceeded to look for my wife and found her shortly after. She didn't find what she was looking for so we meandered toward the exit discussing where to eat.
The security guard came up to me and said "Come with me"
Me "Why"
Him "You are not allowed to have that in here, come with me."
Me "Oh is that a corporate policy, I didn't see a sign posted outside stating that"
Him " It doesn't matter, come with me"
ME "No we are leaving"
I had a feeling he thought he could detain me and call the Police. I tried to find out Ross's corporate policy on the matter (here and google) but to no avail. Anyway we left went to Luis's, a mexican restaurant who have always been freindlywe have been familiar with them for years. Was the first time I Open Carried there though, the owner and his staff never batted an eye . We had our usual freindly conversations and excellent food.
Thanks for the kudos Mike.
Update a little. I called the manager of the store yesterday. And outlined what happened, explained that I respect the rights of private property owners but wanted to know what their corporate policy was. That I didn't want to change my shopping habits due to unreasonable fear of guns of employees or individuals. I also mentioned several stores I shop at that are gun freindly including banks.
She was very professional and freindly and told me she would look that information up or get an answer from someone who would know. She also stated that if it was corporate policy to follow state law she will inform her security and staff that it is allowed in her store. So crossing my fingers and hoping fro the best.

Wow dude you are really good at changing the gendersIn other words, she didn't know of a policy, which meant the security guard wasn't following any directions she might have given.
He was making up his own rules.
