Well I suppose it had to happen sooner or later. Monday May 3, 2010 on the way home from work I stopped by the Holiday store to pick up some things. After waiting in line I got up to the register and before I could say anything, I was told to take my gun outside. The clerk told me it was against store policy to have guns in the store. I left my items on the counter and walked out of the store.
I sent off a quick email to the corporate office and this is the reply that I received this morning.
“Dear Mr. Gilligan,
I sincerely apologize for the confusion with you carrying a weapon into
our store and being asked to leave. We follow the State of Alaska policy
on carrying a weapon. I have sent your message to the district manager
and he will inform the employees at the store so you should not
experience this in the future. Apparently the employee did not
understand the policy in Alaska but they will be informed of the policy.
Sincerely,
Roger Veum
