Meijer waded into the national conversation on gun safety Monday, announcing that it’s requesting that shoppers do not openly carry firearms in its stores.
The move, announced by the Walker-based retail giant on Twitter, drew praise from gun control activists, who called Meijer’s announcement a “common-sense” move that seeks to “create a culture of gun safety.”
Meanwhile, firearms proponents were critical of the move.
“It’s obviously their decision, their property, and I’m assuming that gun owners who are law abiding peaceful people will abide by the decision,” said Steve Dulan, a board member of the Michigan Coalition for Responsible Gun Owners. “But it certainly doesn’t create any more safety there.” |

TO REMEMBER |
As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms. — Tench Coxe in `Remarks on the First Part of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution' under the Pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789 at 2 col. 1. |
