Way back when I got my CHL Walmart had the 30-06 sign posted. We complained and they took it down.

That's why it's important to let businesses know you don't like the 30.06 sign.

Well stated Sprman. I live in a nice part of town and don't feel any need to carry inside of a Sprouts store. If I had to worry about going to the grocery store, I think I would move.

I guess I'm a hippie because I enjoy top grade produce and organic meat? Wait, dont most of us prefer home grown vegetables and organic meat in the form of harvested game?
Tff, you may be surprised to know that the president and CEO is from Tx, not to say we don't have liberals and dems here, but he's not a Yankee or a west coast original.

I would venture to say most of those unlicensed have no idea what this sign means, so it's going to do more harm to their business than good IMO.

The problem with this statement is you dont get to choose when or where bad things happen. They happen everywhere. Yes some areas can raise the chances but being in a "nice" area does not guarantee your safety. I carry every time I leave the house and the only time I disarm is when I am going into a prohibited place like a court house.

Yep. I didn't get my chl because I live in a rough area. I got it because you never know when a psycho is going to walk into a movie theater and start shooting.

Most likely from Austin.... And those folks might as well be Yankees

Im glad some of yall won't go. It will make the lines shorter and allow me to get best picks of the by far best Steaks, Chicken, pork, and produce around. Prices are fair especially when on sale and store staff if helpful. To boycott a store because of a sign is just dumb.

Dear Sprouts,

I live in Texas, and I recently noticed a 30.06 sign posted at the entrance to my local Sprouts. If you don't already know, this sign prohibits holders of a Texas Concealed Handgun License (CHL) from entering your store with a concealed handgun.

As a law abiding citizen, I will respect the law and no longer enter your store. Please be aware, however, that criminals do not care what legal signage is posted, and if they want to commit a crime at your store, a 30.06 sign will only indicate to them that your "gun free zone" is an easy target. Because of this policy, criminals now know (if they can read) that they will face little to no opposition if they decide to rob or murder someone on your property.

Because of this, myself and thousands of other CHL holders will no longer do business with you which is truly a shame. I urge you to review this policy, and I hope you choose to support our Second Amendment rights guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States of America.

Its a wonder some of you folks ever work up the courage to leave your house.
