Publix asks customers not to openly carry guns in stores

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Publix is the latest retailer asking customers to leave their guns at home.

The Lakeland, Fla.-based supermarket chain joins the growing chorus of national retailers asking customers not to bring guns into stores in states where it is legal to openly carry firearms.

“Publix respectfully requests that only law enforcement officials openly carry firearms in our stores,” the chain told the Sun Sentinel in a statement.

Florida is not an open carry state, but Publix operates grocery stores in Alabama and North Carolina where open carry is allowed. The chain did not mention concealed weapons. Florida does issue concealed weapons permits.

Walmart announced it would stop selling handgun and short-barrel rifle ammunition, while requesting that customers not openly carry firearms in its stores, even where state laws allow it. CVS, Kroger and Starbucks soon followed suit.

1. Thanks for asking!

How nice. That's an invitation to the promiscuous gun-toters to come and strut their stuff to prove a point in states that allow it.

If you are not going to post the proper legal notices about not allowing open/concealed carry in your store, your propaganda means nothing. Public relations moves are transparent and do not save lives.

So, stuff it, Publix. That's actually a rude and rather empty gesture, IMHO.

3. Why bother to ask? Tell them "No, or GTFO."

It’s not public property.
