THe only ones promoting the gun culture and associate it with thugism now will be criminals and government.

“Please, we ask customers not to point guns at our cashiers” sign is going to be so useful against the criminals.

So what. I just conceal-carried in CVS the other day. I like having the tactical advantage over violent Demonrats. Open-carriers might get SWATted in this environment. Let’s keep out tactical advantage, until we win the war. After violent Demonrats are dead or in jail for war crimes, then we will open-carry again.

Ok, so when somebody tries to rob a CVS store, I agree not to use my gun to stop the robbery. Deal?

That “joining a growing group” BS really took off when the earliest Monica sex scandal broke with Bill Clinton.

They had articles and radio and TV stories showing “everybody’s doing it” to help him blend in as just another male cheater out of control sex fiend like everybody’s husband,father,brother or neighbor. All males are toxic, evil and to blame. Timely then: Research shows everybody is a liar. Study shows huge increase in adultery since 1940s.

Thus, CVS will say Nike,Gillette,Wal Mart and now they are on the leftist virtue signaling bandwagon. “Love us, kiss us, give us your money.” So each private business can make a firm ruling on the existence of 2nd Amendment rights. CVS rules one way, someone else rules the other way.

The US Constitution is a great document-—unless you try to live by it. What if all the banks,credit card companies,stores and pharmacies say “we disagree with and rule against the freedom of all people from slavery and the right of women to vote. Sorry about that.”

CVS, go chase yourself in freeway traffic. Just stopped by on my way to Walgreen’s to tell you that.

I’d further advocate them putting up a sign saying “This store is gun free, nobody in here is armed”.

Makes sense, especially in rural areas when they are open 24/7 and the robber needs some free pills.

I am sure that the guys robbing the stores will appreciate this effort.

Along with "Gun Free Zone" the barely literate thugs will recognize "CVS" as another safe space to shoot innocent victims. Comforting to them.

Many states do not allow that anyways, so this was just cheap virtue signalling.................

Honk Kong is just a stepping stone to the US

THeir plan is to take over the HK dollar, hence the Chicom MSS started the unrest on purpose, to make a move to push their worthless RMB

Then they will challenge the US dollar in the same way. THey already are active with US execs of big companies and starting trouble on US campus.

IT will come here

Who knows, I’m just reading their statement above. Sounds like only LEO can carry, but I’ll stand corrected.

That’s all it is - a request you do not open carry. No local/state laws broken, it’s not a restaurant or a hospital, just keep on doing what you’re doing.

I had just seen another article on FR about wanting to talk to the USA on trade issues. Sure sign of desperation on China’s part.

Frankly you need to do a little research. Just giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Well, sorry to hurt your feelings. I think Chinese dissidents know a thing or two you do not about CHina taking over the HK dollar as a stepping stone to take over the dollar.

Not that I think you care to look into the way China is known to end the dollar dominance and extinguish it altogether.
