(this post is copied from rambone's post here and I hope he doesn't mind me using his template)
We often discuss our encounters at various stores and report back to the forum, whether they be good or bad encounters, regarding their official stance on carrying guns. The goal of this thread is to create a consolidated list of pro-gun & anti-gun stores in Northwest Indiana. If this goes well other people may want to create a thread listing stores in your neck of the woods.
This thread will entail "District 5," defined as:
Marion County
Boone County
Hamilton County
Hancock County
Shelby County
Johnson County
Morgan County
Hendricks County
ANTI-GUN BUSINESSES
The Anti-Gun list will entail stores that have an official policy for restricting carry in their stores. This might have been determined by a visibly posted sign, an encounter with a manager, reading the employee handbook, etc. If at some point the store vindicates themselves we will make a note of it.

GUN-NEUTRAL BUSINESSES
The Gun-Neutral list contains a list of businesses that have no rules on the books about carrying, have no signs posted prohibiting it, and the management do not acknowledge one way or another your decision to carry. Unless you tell me otherwise!
STARBUCKS
PRO-GUN BUSINESSES
The Pro-Gun list will be a shorter list of stores that have proved themselves to be true friends of gun-owners. I don't think it will be necessary to list every gun shop as a pro-gun store. And this mostly pertains to carry policies, but other aspects should be considered as well.

NOTES
Please think hard and contribute so we can get a respectable list going here. I will continue to edit the Original Post as we go. When adding a suggestion let us know the following;
The name of the store.
The type of store (restaurant, clothing store, furniture, etc)
The address (at least what street the store is on).
The town.
Summarized comments on what happened in the store.
Include a thread link where applicable, if it has been discussed elsewhere.
Is the comment regarding official policy or a mere encounter with an employee?
