And another criminal magnet reveals itself.
ATTENTION TARGET CUSTOMERS: Please avoid our establishments after dark. Our prohibition on firearms means that you will certainly be unarmed coming from and returning to your vehicular conveyance. That makes our parking lots a prime location for local thugs to relieve you or your belongings and perhaps your vehicle and, possibly, YOUR LIFE!
Have a wonderful day!
Instead, Target will get a "safe and inviting" atmosphere for whack jobs looking for soft targets.
