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 American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
