Unfortunately this is what lawyers/lawsuits and corporate greed have led to. These types of stores typically can’t get insurance without a no carry policy or the insurance is so astronomically expensive they raise prices and put themselves out of business. Same thing is happening to the notion of have teachers and/or school personnel armed. In areas that passed laws allowing this it simply hasn’t happened because the school will lose its insurance.

Wal Mart and Walgreens will fire you also.

This is a perfect example of how upside down this world has become.

Evil is rewarded. Heroes are demonized.

There is a sickness that has gripped us all.

Not me. I am right about everything I say and this country prefers to wait until it is 1929 status to acknowledge it.

We will see how "racist" you are when hyperinflation and high unemployment hits us.

Walmart will fire you far less than carrying an unauthorized firearm, no WM employee is authorized to carry a gun !

A company with 2 million employees needs a blanket policy for such matters

You just can't bring your handgun to work, even if legally licensed to carry a concealed weapon

A hero perhaps yes, a potentially dangerous vigilante=yes

Fired =yes

There was a case discussed here maybe 6-9 months ago about 1-2 workers at a Taco Bell in some shithole city like Detroit or .Chicago or somewhere .

The workers ( surely young colored dudes) were packin',and blew away the robbers

I never heard the result of that one, but I'm sure it resulted badly for the employees, might have gotten some time for it, absolutely had to get fired... That hardly matters with a TB job, justified to carry in such a hood is a hell yes

Should you get fired for bringing a gun to work, unfortunately I have to say yes, the employer needs to have some level of control over the employee
