I am a member of a wholesale club like BJ’s, Sam’s club or Costco, as well as a habitual and lawful carrier of a concealed handgun. Recently I was looking at various stores and their stances on stuff and realized that my club store has a firm stance against open carry, and their CEO even went to far as to pen a pretty sanctimonious public statement about how guns just sorta aren’t welcome because families or something.. put me to sleep.
Of course with the passage of time our enemy has become ever bolder in its demands for capitulation and empty public statements.
Part of me wants to write a letter to whoever would listen, calling club store’s efforts halfhearted at best and insisting that a real commitment to disarming its members would include metal detectors at the doors. I feel like it either proves them hypocritical or demands a commitment to wokeness that will seriously undercut their customer base.
Is there any reason why that’s a stupid idea?
It’s my hope that they would. Other store chains in the field have made those genuflections, but every company wants to stand out. The first one to go full retard would hopefully lose market share in red states and the market would then prove what the people really want.
I mean, while I’m daydreaming, I’d also like to win a Kel Tec KSG in a raffle I forgot I entered.
