We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

It could very well be the store security to blame but it could also be a store/chain policy on how to handle a MWAG entering the store. Just a thought and something to think about. It probably is the security to blame as I OC in out local Target from time to time and have not had a problem.

I guess that the Core has gone the way of the other services, " Kinder, gentler ..." This is sad as he has done a disservice to all of those who have gone before.

Sorry as well to revive a dead topic and if this has been commented on already, but if you listen to the Tony's 911 call recording, the caller is clearly NOT "from Virginia." His accent seems to be a New York accent, though it is not 100% clear on the recording. No wonder why he's "not comfortable with it." He should take the time to learn a bit about the customs of his new State -- it's only polite.
(Before you flame me, I am a shamelessly proud Northerner. But fair is fair.)

I agree about a Marine being uncomfortable around firearms carriers. He says that he is a retired Marine (not "former"). I never served, but I grew up in a Marine Corps family since I was 8 years old (Step Father was flag officer 28 years in the Corps). And I have had MANY Marine friends, roommates and coworkers. I wouldn't be surprised if that guy was a poser.

Yet another member of the security field who knows his states gun laws. (Not because of the company that is for sure)
Side note: The location I work at has a no firearm policy for both employees and visitors. But since I have started here we have added a key lock box bolted to the wall that can be used to store any employee or visitors firearms during office hours. (we do ask they unload it at their vehicle before bringing it in)

As a young, long-haired type in the '60s, I found my disheveled appearance a benefit when visiting the large box stores. I made the sales help so nervous, I never had to look far when I wanted assistance.
Is Open Carry the 21st century equivalent of having long hair and wearing bell-bottom jeans? Or shoudl I expect the pimply-faced ESL high-school dropout to run screaming if I approached them for a price-check?
