I don't live anywhere near this place 6000 W. Silver Spring, Milwaukee. And it's a crummy neighborhood. Right across the street from West Lawn housing projects.

But every now and then I go there and stock up on some brew. They have this section of the store called "discount corner" and the deals are excellent:

6 packs of Sam Adams $2.99
12 packs of Sam adams $5.99
12 packs of Corona $5.99
6 packs of Strohs $1.99.
6 pack of Wisconsin Amber $2.99.
And so on.

I kid you not. A fellow at work told me about it last year and I've been going there once a month since. Always armed, of course.

Tonight I noticed it was posted "No weapons of any kind" on the door. The DOJ seems to think I might be able to legally ignore that sign but why should I be able to when other law abiding people exercising their rights can't? I had been on my way home from Gun World in Germantown and was open carrying tonight. As I was walking through the door I saw the sign and turned around and left. Took my money somewhere else!

I didn't bother to talk to the 2 creeps working there as neither seemed to speak English in any proficient way. I can only guess what they were saying when they say my Glock on my hip. I will have to find out who owns the store and contact them as to why I will not be going out of my way to patronize his/her store.

Any help finding this information will be appreciated!

Do you have any receipts with the business name? Might not list it aside from something generic on a cash receipt but if you've made a credit/debit card purchase, it usually has the the legal name listed on their merchant account on any receipts that print from the terminal.

I'm sorry I don't know the business in question, but I also don't understand the statement above.

Are you LEO or something?

Well as I have never heard of a liquor store being robbed, and now that they have posted no weapons are permited inside they are perfectly safe. I mean how much safer do they need to be?:confused:
