Counting on it.

Others have reported people using the same excuse and I would like to hear from them as well if they can provide an update or documentation. So, it's not just you I'm asking.

Not a priority for my mother. When I was able to sit down and talk with her. She said that it wasn't a raise rates, they just "strongly pressured" her to put them up, along with some other credit union organization. It was via emails, and I'm trying to get her to go back and see if she can find them. So wasn't a put them up or raise rates as she told me at first, but they are putting pressure on people to do it. If I can get her to go back and find the emails I was going to give them to Mr Cotton.

So if they aren't threatening to raise rates, how else are they "pressuring"? Threatening to cancel? Seems to me that one must produce some kind of threat to "pressure".

It is not always a manufactured excuse. My mother is president of a credit union. Their insurance rates were going to go up if they didn't put up signs. She knew she had people carrying in the credit union all the time, and she didn't care. Neither did the board. She knows if she just wanted to stop open carry she only needed a 30.07 sign, so it isn't ignorance. It is purely a financial decision. I don't know about every place, but I do know about one. She was going to get her chl until she found out she could carry in her car without it, and that was all she wanted to do. My stepdad carried everywhere he went, and I carry everywhere I go. So she isn't opposed to carrying.

I need conclusive proof that this is happening. Please ask your mother if she will talk to me about this issue. Also, having the name of the insurance company and any correspondence, emails, etc. where she was told they credit union would be "rated" if no signs were posted will be quite valuable.

This is something we can address, but as yet we have not a shred of evidence it's happening. I'm not saying your Mom is not telling the truth; I'm saying we don't have any proof.
