Sounds more like a local liberal nutcase than a corporate problem..........
This is the MSM brainwashing our schools have been doing for decades. Manager has been taught guns bad, guns kill, people dont. Good luck finding a ‘thinking’ manager these days.
Are these people ever going to be of value? Or are they always going to be typified and defined by their abject stupidity? Inquiring minds, and all.
If I were the sheriff, I’d tell them, “Fine, you don’t want our protection, you won’t get any.”..................
I don’t understand the store’s policy.
If you are a bad guy with intention of robbing the place, the store’s policy would not stop them.
If you have a conceal carry permit, and your weapon is not visible, the store employee’s would never know.
So it seems the only people that would be turned away would be uniformed police officers. Does that make any sense.
I have noticed that the ‘managers’ at a lot of these type businesses aren’t much more than HS kids..............Especially fast food places................
I wonder who hires these idiots?
That’s funny!
There are no winners here except the constitution.
That cop should have a gun on him. That jeweler should have a gun on them. We should all have guns on ourselves. This situation was solved 240 years ago.
The cop will disarm citizens. The store will vilify guns and be robbed..
Deputy should have reminded the manager that failure to deliver goods already paid for is larceny, a criminal offense. Also remind the manger that lying to a law enforcement officer conducting an investigation is also a criminal offence.
Then make a show of turning on a body cam or cell phone. “This is deputy XXXX at location XXXX on date XXXX. I am investigating a possible left of goods valued at XXXX.” Turn to the manager and say “For the record of this investigation, please state your full name.”
That usually sparks an “Oh shit” realization. Such theater will often remind the person that their store policy DOES NOT TRUMP LAW.
Why is it that the standard wimpy corporate response when they are caught out is to institute more training for what should have been the most simple of commonsense responses?
-------------------
I would bet that is the case. Some nit wit taking the "gun free zone" sign out front a little too literally. Corporate is going to be doing some serious suck-up to mend fences I would bet?
why bother?
The company apologized over the dumb move by one of their employees, who possibly misunderstood their policies.
They are in the process of rectifying the matter.
It is fixed. Stop acting like the Covington attacking asshats.
Spend that energy going after things that matter, like Pelosi, Brennen, Clapper, and the rest of the deep state.
Dude! “DC Lee”?
Your a comic book super hero!
‘Employee Re-training’ is in order....................
Now would be a great time to rob that Kay jewelers store.
Hahahahaha
This insane policy of no weapons on premises has finally come full circle. Now even an on duty police officer is being asked to disarm himself before entering a store.
Of course a private enterprise has every right to limit what they want on their own property but thats not really the point. If we cant even trust that an on-duty officer wont rob the store while picking up his own ring, where are we as a society?
Law abiding citizens everywhere are being given more and more restrictions on their 2nd Amendment rights via store policies (and airports and government offices and courthouses) and the only ones who dont obey are, guess what criminals! It has the exact opposite effect of whats desired. It disarms law abiding citizens and thus leaves arms only in the hands of criminals, at the most vulnerable of locations.
This story only reinforces that fact. What if some armed robbers entered that jewelry store at that time and robbed the place just as the officer left the store? Wouldnt that be irony! But just dessert to be sure.
Other idiots..............
