Meijer has joined a growing number of large U.S. retailers asking customers to not openly carry guns in their stores.
The Midwest retailer announced the request Monday, Sept. 9 on Twitter, stating the open display of guns can make employees and customers feel in danger.
“The safety of our customers and team members is our top priority, so we respectfully request that our customers do not open carry firearms at Meijer,” the company stated in the Tweet. “We’ve made this decision because open carry can create an environment that makes our customers and team members feel unsafe.”
It was not immediately clear what, if any, changes Meijer is making to sales of ammunition and firearms. |

Canned talking points likely prepared by Bloomberg/Soros operatives:
“The safety of our customers and team members is our top priority, so we respectfully request that our customers do not open carry firearms at Meijer,” the company stated in the Tweet. “We’ve made this decision because open carry can create an environment that makes our customers and team members feel unsafe.”
"There's nothing more important than the safety of our customers and employees," said Wegmans on Twitter. "The sight of someone with a gun can be alarming, and we don't want anyone to feel that way at Wegmans. For this reason, we prefer that customers not openly carry firearms in our stores."
How does the way your customers feel affect their safety?
Non sequitur. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
