So I won't be buying my gas from Circle K any more.

He admitted he was aware of the policy, but claimed his manager had looked the other way after another clerk was murdered at the store a few years ago.
"Everybody knew that I carried a weapon and I've been here three-and-a-half years and they knew from day one that I had a gun," he insisted. -Quote from story
Maybe one of our legal eagles will throw in their 2¢ (okay $50) but I think this is tremendously bad for the employer. His manager created a de facto policy allowing employees to arm themselves and opened a wrongful termination case potential.

because it is a private business......just playing devils advocate again..... let the flaming begin in 3...2...1
I'm sorry. What law or amendment are they violating?
What law does it violate?
I remember being angry at Exxon for the Valdez disaster. I'm old. And then I realized they are no worse than any other oil company. Hello BP.
Please let me know what retail companies allow employees to carry guns? Crickets chirping. Of course gun stores because they are very second amendment friendly. Oh wait, most of them don't allow their customers to carry on their premises.
If you allow principles to guide your life you'd never leave home. Or you would be in jail or dead.

I thought Snopes debunked this but Starbucks is anti 2A and their coffee really isn't that good not for what you pay so conceal carry and go to QT for coffee and gas and happy early birthday jarhead. Semper Fi!
Or they could violate their insurance company and go out of business. As I said before, it's cheaper for Circle K to replace a murdered clerk than to allow them the ability to defend themselves.
Here's a rhetorical question for all of you men of principle. Would you pay 25% more to shop at Circle K than Quick Stop (?) if Circle K paid for armed guards?

And if you have no principles your leaving home contributes nothing so who cares if you leave it or not. At least TRY. Or like so many others, just come here to complain about the state of the union that you do nothing to better.
Nor, in all honesty should I talk too loudly, my activism is sporadic and mostly temper driven. Still the least we can do is express our beliefs and try to make things better.
I was listening to Charlie Daniels' Uneasy Rider 88 the other day and the line "Jim, this ain't our kind of place" struck me. The more I look at what's become of the US these days the more I feel like "this ain't our kind of place". Well, as long as we let the liberals, gun-controllers, wealth redistributors and socialists shape the country while we sit on our thumbs because letting principles guide our lifes means we should never leave home then America surely will not be "our kind of place".
