Retail establishments that don't allow firearms?

[XtremeVehicleDesigns]

My wife was shopping at Earth Fare at Hamilton commons today and noticed the sign on her way in (big surprise I know) She has a ccw so, although she knows she was safe, it really bothered her to shop at a place that is a high robbery target. I personally stopped going to bdubs (breaks my heart) until they change their stance. Recently I heard Star Bucks is a big 2nd amendment supporter, even under pressure from their liberal customers. Any other places to avoid or give my business to that you know?

A quick search will turn up loads of info. BWW's, Toys R Us, and Philips 76 gas stations are major anti gunners that I can think of off the top of my head.

Chic Fil A and starbucks are two resteraunts I know are open to carrying, I think steak and shake is as well.

Value city furniture use to have signs posted (at least at the location in Castleton) but last time I went by I didn't notice the signs anymore. Also babies r us (owned by toys r us)

Not a retail establishment, and maybe not a surprise, but Comcast has now come out and shown their anti-2nd amendment stance.

I hate AT&T, but I may be forced to dump Comcast in favor of another provider.

Tilted kilt has signs posted "no weapons of any kind". I'm sure that I could misconstrue that to fit the environment.

Cracker Barrel does not allow CC or OC except Law Enforcement.

I don't believe in discrimination. I clearly put this in that school of thought.

That's interesting since a group of folks went to the one in Indy after last months rally @ the statehouse while carrying their rifles, shotguns & pistols.

I know that Tilted Kilt posts signs when the State Law would be broken if you entered OC / CC, because I have been to both the Indy and the Louisville locations. Indy doesn't have a sign, but the Louisville location does, because KY State Law doesn't allow carrying in a place that basically makes more than 50% of their money from serving, nor an actual bar. Sadly, TK basically falls under both of those criteria.

LOL ... Where is this TILTED KILT - becuase the one in down town Indy is a standby post rally M&G place goof to go w/ OC ... Some after the Feb 8 rally even carried their AR's and other long guns in - photo's taken w/ waitresses and all. ... VERY positive experience. ...

I had an incident recently at BK, but i'm thinking it was just the one guy not the company as a whole. Might be worth looking into though.

ANTI-GUN => Costco, Toys R Us, Babies R Us
PRO-2A = Sam's Club, Wal-Mart

ANTI-GUN => Buffalo Wild Wings, Cracker Barrel, Portillo's Hot Dogs
PRO-2A = Chic fil a, Steak n Shake, Starbucks

Do we have list started somewhere on this board? If not someone should start one.

 

[horsehaulin]

Anti= Autozone

I'd say Petco could be considered OC friendly from the standpoint that they'll generally do anything to avoid a complaint. I've had customers OC before and it wasn't any problem.

DANG -- not Portillo's -- really?!

That just ruins my day -- guess I'll have to find a different place to eat when I'm up in that neck of the woods.

Protillo's is VERY anti-gun.

Some people confuse the blue and white NRA tin sign inside their restaurants as an only National Rifle Association sign but they are mistaken, its actually a sign for the socialist National Recovery Act. They have a corporate NO GUNS ALLOWED policy and their restaurant in Merrillville has small NO GUNS signs. A while back several people OC'ing at the Merrillville location were escorted out by police and told not to return...ever.

What do you expect from a CHICAGO based chain?

 

[jve153]

The people with ling guns at tk called ahead of time and let them know they were coming and what was coming with them
I am sure that along with the rally going on alleviated a lot of their fears. If a group of us just randomly showed up with ar15 and aks we would probably be asked to stay outside. Just my thinking and in no way representative of tk actual policy.

Hmm, that's funny...

 

[No2rdame]

Hmm... Well, I like Earth Fare so I guess I'll just have to be a bit "discreet." As far as that being a robbery target area, that area of Noblesville is very safe, although it never hurts to be prepared.
