| Whole Foods is a Gun Free Zone........ (Posted on 1/16/13 at 9:11 am)
Went to Whole Foods yesterday and a sign on the door noted that guns weren't allowed in the store. Wow......I felt much safer walking in there knowing that criminals after seeing that would turn around immediately and return their piece to the car before engaging in any criminal mischief.

I went to a Whole Foods in St. Louis about 2 1/2 years ago.
Since then, its been (and will remain) and "Ace Midnight"-free zone, as well.

The most common crime in Whole Foods is highway robbery for its food prices. And since the company and its customers are so politically correct, why not require that each fat cat wealthy customer bring along and finance an underprivileged minority shopper to increase diversity at the retailer?

Pretty sure all they can do is ask you to leave if you have a CCW permit.

That is the epitome of stupidity. If you're a criminal you're not gonna give a shite about a sign so banning law abiding citizens from carrying will just increase potential damage. Obama must have made the sign himself.

Do they let their security officers carry firearms? How about police officers who shop? How about plain clothes police officers?

I guess in their minds this is the only way to prevent someone from shooting another person over the last block of organic Swiss.

Check out this guy from back on Jan 6th. He was disarmed and detained for open carry BEFORE any no firearms signs. I believe legal action is being taken against the officer.
Detained at Whole Foods

Actually, no.
In Louisiana, if you have a CCP, you cannot legally carry in a business that posts such a sign (on the other hand, you are free to carry in the absence of such a sign). If you carry contrary to the posted notice, you can have your CCP suspended/revoked.

They call it concealed carry for a reason.
Incidentally I have a CC permit.
Not saying I'd carry into Whole foods though.
