Another big-box retailer, Costco Wholesale Corp, explicitly bans its members from bringing guns into stores. The company's weapons policy is posted on Costco.com but not publicly at store entrances. The retailer hasn't adapted new protocols for confronting an armed customer or employee.

Did Costco always have this policy or was it in response to the shootings in its stores? I've never been a member so I wouldn't know, but I don't recall hearing it before.

Have there been many or any shootings "in" Costco? I searched a little and only found where the police had killed a woman vendor with a knife and also wounded one of their own.

Only in Las Vegas, where nothing leaves.

You're probably referring to the Eric Scott killing and while "at" Costco, it was really outside.

Whatever happened with the Eric Scott killing? There are quite a few stories on this forum that leaves me wondering if justice was done, like the former Marine in Arizona that was murdered by law enforcement and the man that was arrested for displaying a gun to people parked on his property.

The officers involved in the shooting were subsequently found to be “justified” by other officers, and were not charged with anything.

LVMPD has an "odd" way of conducting these investigations, in the past 34 years, only one Metro officer has ever been found to have acted improperly out of at least 190 inquests, and that officer wasn’t charged with a crime. A stellar track record - if only it were honest.

I quit reading after

"Much like a private homeowner is able to tell his guests whether they can bring a gun into his yard, FedEx should have the right to decide what it will and will not allow on its private property," Mark Hogan, vice president of U.S. security for FedEx Express told Tennessee lawmakers last year.

I can tell someone not to carry a pistol in my yard (unless it's the police), but I can't tell my guests they cannot keep a pistol in their car in my driveway or the side of the road by my house.
