DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — Grocery store chain Kroger is getting a push from a group of mothers to ban guns from its stores, including Harris Teeter locations.

Moms Demand Action on Thursday delivered more than 72,000 petitions to Harris Teeter's Matthews headquarters. They want the company to ban openly carried guns, even in jurisdictions where "open carry" is legal.

Hopefully they don't have a "shot" by "targeting" Harris Teeter. We shall see. Stand firm Harris Teeter. Hopefully Kroger will stay strong. Too bad HT didn't decline (or did they) acceptance of the petitions.

It is a group with “
Mothers” in the name of the group. The membership component that consists of mothers is irrelevant.

Can’t these tw@ts find better hobbies to occupy their time, like a knitting circle or book club?? I feel bad for their kids being alone while Mommy is traveling the country agitating people minding the law and their own business.
