To date, I have not heard of one instance of a carrier being asked for LTC at Walmart, which makes me believe that the information being thrown around is speculation and not from Walmart at all.

Keep in mind, not all LTC holders post on here. Just because you haven't heard of it happening doesn't mean it hasn't happened. Do you really think a corporate Wal-Mart manager would go on record with a reporter if it wasn't true company policy?

I keep track of everyone here and at texasguntalk.com, and I bet that that covers a decent portion of people OCing in Texas. I think twice before I believe anything from bloomberg.com, which is where the original article is from.

EDIT: I see that the bloomberg point was made on the previous page.
Also, TABC rules for firearms need to be legislated out. It should not matter if an establishment sells alcohol and those locations should be treated the same as any other business.

OC'ed in Walmart tonight - not a word was said.

Is TABC demanding Walmart do this? There are 1000s of stores that sell alcohol in the same manner as walmart, and I have not heard of them having this requirement.
If TABC is making this the issue, then the blue unlicensed signs and that force of law need to be legislated out. Who cares if you sell alcohol for off-premise consumption? If you say that hoodlums with guns may try to rob the place because they like alcohol, why don't places like jewelry stores get automatic protection too? I bet thieves like jewelry as much as alcohol.
