I was confronted about OC'ing my G19 tonight as I left Walmart in Granite Falls, NC. The guy looked to be a CSM, manager type. He spoke to me as I was leaving, however he missed me when I walked right by him coming in. I am positive this guy told me you could not carry any weapon in WM. His reasoning was because one of the employees could not. And he said they asked the District Manager. I politely told him that Walmart Corp policy was to follow the laws of the state it was in and that the guy could not carry because he was an employee. I told him I could not carry where I work either. :banghead:
At this point the guy blew me off to help another customer with a return. He did not ask me to leave, and did not ask me not to come back. He stated that he would not have let me enter if he had seen the weapon. Of course he asked if I was LEO first. Unfortunately his name badge was turned around and he left me with a "have a good night." So I walked out and will pursue this with the District folks. I know a couple of folks who work there so I may be able to track down a name. I have a good description that I will use in any email I can get out tonight. Here we go.
First negative managerial encounter. Any experience with this at other WM's? BTW, my wife is ready to boycott them! :lol:
