The only people complaining about this seem to be the news media.

When I lived in Florida, Publix closed on Sundays.

“Printing” is not a crime in Florida!

Bad guys will hear about this and decide Publix is not the place to carry out their next crime.

I feel like if you're going to carry a gun, I'd rather know that it's on your person than be caught off guard

A clueless by-stander's perspective.

From a sheep dog perspective, open carry is dumb.

Michigan has been an open carry state for almost forever and most people, including LEO's never knew it because it was never an issue.

It wasn't until about 2001 when Mich became a "shall issue" state did it finally come to light.

In fact, I think I've only seen maybe 3 people openly carry in the past number of years.

Wish I was a legislator. I’d propose the following:

Any business, local government, or other entity who bans a law abiding citizen from carrying a firearm and someone is injured or killed in their establishment with no effective means of defense shall be subject to $1B in statutory damages.

Is $1B too low or too high?

That’s how freedom works: You make your own choices without demanding that others surrender their rights to ease your discomfort.

Well put.

All of Az has been doing it for decades. No one has noticed any difference with their shopping experience.
