    Good story. Glad your wife was able to keep her head and turn it around on the young manager.

    Wal-Mart - I wonder how long it will be before they convince congress they should be allowed to conduct pat downs?

    Sounds like "Profiling " to me...... I wonder if the same manager asked any Mexicans if they were citizens.... somehow, I doubt it.....

    Wife just returned from a trip to the Martinsville Wal-Mart. While doing her shopping and wearing her NRA T shirt. She was approached by a male member of management. He said " excuse me, I see you are a member of the NRA. May I ask if you are carrying a gun on you now?":dunno:

    She responded by asking him "sir, if you saw someone wearing a greatful dead shirt, would you think they were greatful of the dead? What if someone was wearing a sunkist shirt would you assume they were drinking a sunkist?" Then don't assume I am carrying a gun, and besides, it's none of you business!":rockwoot:

    And she walked away and finshed her shopping! By the way, she was carrying her gun.:D

    If the manager only knew how many people in Martinsville carry in his Martinsville he woulh crap his pants.

    Good for her, but why did she continue shopping? I would have walked out and gone somewhere else.

    My question would have been, "Why do you ask?". Walmart does not have a no guns policy.
    I contacted corporate once on this issue. Corporate said it was left up to the individual store manager, even though the general guideline is to abide by state law wherever that store is located.

    Decatur, Indiana's evening manager is not gun friendly.
