Stores have a right to prohibit weapons. You'll see more of it in the future if open CC'ers push the limit.

correct it is counter productive to the store's main goal -make money

However, making open carry more common place primarily in locations that do not have the ability to ban firearms and secondarily inside of private establishments could desensitize the public. This could lead to less concern in public places and less impact on revenue there. Thus making it a non issue as far as the stores are concerned.

It's a PR game, not an exposure game. You'll never win by forcing your hand in businesses that have a right to ban firearms, which they can in most states.

As much as I agree with this, recent history concerning other controversial issues and a private establishment's right to refuse service would seem to fly in contrast to that statement.

Look at the cake maker that was forced by the gov to bake a cake for a gay couple.

Look at the catholic school being sued by the lesbian cook who applied and was denied a job



























Honestly with the way this country is going we should all start a movement to have firearms seen as sexual partners and creatively change the verbage in a way that makes keeping our sexual partner close to our side in public a part of our very fiber that can not be denied.
