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 |
| The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them. — Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States; With a Preliminary Review of the Constitutional History of the Colonies and States before the Adoption of the Constitution [Boston, 1833]. |
