My concern is that it is very easy to put up signs but very hard to change someone's mind. Especially when it involves them having to admit they made a mistake or they perceive they will end up with egg on their face.
Much of the reason I think the open AR carry guys should back off and tone it down some. Especially when it comes to demonstrating on private property and in private businesses.

Re: East Texas Goodwill's gone 30.06
Time will tell. We have to keep in mind the concealed carry community is relatively small. Then you take the ones that shop or donate to Goodwill that I believe will be a small percentage that are concealed carriers that will take up the issue and act upon it. I don't see it making much of an impact.txglock21 wrote:You never know. It only took a few to get them to put the sign up. If a few hundred let them know they will no longer donate or buy from them it may be enough to change their minds again. Maybe not the overall "Illwill" stores, but the ones in smaller towns that rely on the local community.mojo84 wrote:gthaustex wrote:Yep.

Not much in relative to their total donations. They won't notice it unfortunately.
If so, Starbucks would have issued a retraction and some of the theaters would take down their signs and so forth.
