Was Oc in Aldi's grocery today like I have many times. Have never had a problem till today. The following letter is what I emailed to corp. offices since I can not find a number anywhere to call.
Hello
I will start by saying I have been a customer to this location since it's opening. I have always had good experiences while shopping there until today. I am licensed in the state of Oklahoma to carry a handgun anywhere it is not prohibited. I have carried my handgun into your store on several occasions as there are no signs on your doors stating it is prohibited. Today while me and my family were shopping I was approached by I am assuming the store manager and was told I could not carry in the store. I told him I did not see any signs anywhere stating that I could not carry my firearm in the store, he then got very short with me and said they are there and I had to leave. I walked outside and thoroughly looked over the doors and still there was no signs. I walked out to my car and placed my firearm inside my vehicle so I could go in and discuss this matter further with him and ask him to point out the signs to me. When I went back in I could not find him so I asked another employee to get the manager and they told me he was unavailable.
If your store does not recognize oklahoma state law, or my right to protect myself, my family and anyone else around me then you need to have proper signs up stating your position so that I, my family, and all other law abiding citizens who have the right to carry our firearms can find another store to do business with as there are several other stores that have no problem with me carrying my firearm in their stores.
I am looking forward to hearing from you in this matter.
Thank you
