I guess my point in carrying there was to push them off the fence. I f they say they have a corporate policy, yet don't enforce it by asking us to leave or post signs and their store managers and employees are in favor of the right, then they need to be pushed to clarify their position. At the corporate level they may not notice a few missing customers, but at the store level if they ask me to leave, I get a chance to tell them why. At the corporate level they are not responding to correspondence. I suggest that we either push them exercising the right and force them to take a position on it or start store level correspondence to make them realize the lost sales.
I obviously do not like the policy or agree with it and think it is an assault on freedom. Somehow their position needs to come out of the closet and into open public view. I don't think we should let them have a quiet prohibition against a right of freedom.
I guess I am not understanding here.
The point as I read it is not that on an individual basis we can carry in Farm & Fleet despite a corporate policy (kinda sneakily getting away with something) to the contrary but rather, that they have a corporate policy that bans our carry on their property. I don't like that.
The point is not that you can get away with carrying, but that they either have a corporate policy in line with the state law or they do not. If not, they do not get my business regardless of what is happening on the ground. In my opinion, it does no good to enter their store until this is changed. As a matter of fact, it is counterproductive to our cause. Again; IMHO.
Maybe I'm seeing this wrong. Perhaps someone can correct me here.
