"Get me your manager, NOW"
I don't think he was an employee but he did seem to know the cashier. You're right. I probably should have told her to get a manager.

I have been in retail for 25+ years and I have seen customers do this and as a manager have asked them to leave for the disruption it causes to my business.
I've been to the Commons once. I used the east entrance. I remember a No Firearms sign upon entering. This would have been in late 2010/ early 2011. I haven't been back since, though. Things may have changed.
OC'd at the Bonney Lake Walmart last night. I noticed they charged to much for a bottle of rum so I went to the service counter to get my money back. As I was finishing up this guy says to the cashier, "Yeah, you better do what he says! He's got a gun!"
The cashier suddenly notices that I am in fact carrying and says, "Oh, my God!"
I turned to look at Doofus, "I don't carry to intimidate and you are causing unnecessary attention to me and you."
He ignored me and just kept blabbing. He was very excited. "This state is crazy! I've never seen anything like it. People are just strapped everywhere they go!"
He was far to loud for my liking so I collected my groceries and left. He was obviously not an Anti. Just an idiot.
I just don't understand the attraction some people have to being loud and yelling, "Look at me! Look at me! I'm important! Everybody pay attention to me!"
M1 is being questioned/detained at this moment at Seatac, while dropping a family member off for their flight.
Update to come....
My phone was on my belt so audio did not work to repost (will remember that for next time). The conversation went like this;
OF- I know Open Carry is legal BUT...
Me- I am waiting for my son right there in the green shirt, as soon as he is thru the check point I will be on my way.
OF- Well, could you just put it in your car for now
me- No, as soon as he is thru I will be leaving. Unless you will walk him thru security and to his gate?
Of- No sir, I can't do that... be aware that a supervisor will make contact.
Glad everything turned out okay for the most part.
Had I been paying attention to my phone while I was typing this up, my son could have got a $300 voucher to be bumped to the next flight. Maybe next time...
23rd 10am Stans headers Auburn. Pulled in and saw a 1911 sign on the door with a bunch of writing under it. Thought maybe it was a no guns sign, so I slipped my gun out and put it in the vehicle safe. Walked in and noticed it was a pro 2nd sign and said it was encouraged at the facility. Picked up my stainless tube for my customers Harley exhaust and before I could get on my way back to tig weld up some goodness. Had a nice conversation about gun rights, suppressors, his PMR30 half a dozen other gun topics. Great Encounter!!! Even said he wished someone was carrying in that theater and could probably have saved some lives.
