I had to go to walmart today to return some stuff was stuck at the front door while elderly man checked my returns and taged them with some sticker while standing there a lady came up to me and really loudly asked if I had a permit to carry that. I looked at her and smiled , Said I dont need one to opencarry she then asked if I was LE I said no. She then informed me that because of the laws in wi they dont allow people to carry firearms in the store except for LE. I had to laugh. I asked what laws are you refering too, She did not answer. I then said I know that I can carry here and told her she is not allowed to ask me to leave because she was a floor worker. She then says well I know we have a policy against it and who are you to tell me I dont no the rules I laughed again and asked her to call her manager, she laughed at me and said fine if you want to be escorted out we can do that or somthing to that effect and walked to a phone near by I heard her say we have a man up here packing a gun and then she said it is on his side ya in a holster she said ok thank you. She hung up the phone and snapped at back at me and said you have permission to carry that thing, I SAID I KNOW AND NOW SO DO YOU! So I returned my stuff and went on to finish my shopping and then noticed she was following me and telling all the rest of the employees to look and she was pointing at me and my firearm I then turned told her I would be contacting her manager and complaining about her actions. She said she was not following me. Well I dont think I will shopping in that store until they have trained their employees better. I also carryed and spoke with several employees at menards today nothing to report but good things there
