I send them the statistics of the number of Texas likely to be in their customer base that have a LTC. So what if only 4% of Texans have an LTC. It's meaningless to retailers' income since that 4% ratio includes everyone from infants to 20 years old that legally can't carry yet. What's relevant are the percentage of Texans ages 21 and over who have an LTC and are likely to be their customers. For example, customer demographics: http://www.retailleader.com/top-story-c ... s-583.html. Now how many of those have their LTC? I don't know but it's greater than 4%. The information of the number of Texans within that main shopping demographic age should be in the capital but I can't find it from the website.Outnumbered wrote:Obviously, go somewhere else to shop or eat, but do you say something? It seems to me that if we want businesses to remove their signs, they need to know that they are losing customers due to their choice. Some of the dyed in the wool anti-gun corporations might not care, but I bet there are plenty out there who will care if they learn they are turning customers away. MDA has been the squeaky wheel. It seems we need to squeak louder. I'm just not sure how.
So, my question is, if you plan to let them know why you will no longer be a customer, how do you inform them? Hand them one of the TSRA's no guns no money cards? Call? Send an email or letter? What do you all think would be most effective?
