is it fair to take it from that statement that your intention is to predominantly open carry? I only ask because HEB indicated that CC was welcome in their stores which would leave me thinking they are Pro 2A.

If given an equal option of "half pro 2A" or "full pro 2A" i'll default to full.

Except that the phrase "half pro 2A" is a meaningless creation of OCT and Carry Texas. It's a feeble attempt to cast aspersions when they are unwarranted. It's a classic OCT/CT tactic.

Chas.

I think you miss the point entirely. If open carry is my preferred method, why would I not do business with a company that allows me to do that?

Why would I go against my preferred carry method to reward a company that tells me I can't?

That makes no sense at all.

I didn't miss anything and your point was to falsely claim HEB is "half pro 21A." That's nothing but a shorthand version of "if you don't support everything I want, then you are anti-gun." It's the line OCT/Grisham/Carry Texas/Holcomb used during the failed campaign to kill licensed open-carry and pass unlicensed open-carry.

I couldn't care less where you shop; just don't denigrate a pro-gun company on our Forum.

Chas.

I simply disagree with you that they are completely pro gun. Is that a bannable offense?

It's not about guns with HEB, it's about selling groceries. HEB is pro gun. They don't care if you carry your gun as long as they don't think it negatively impacts their business. Thanks to OCT and friends, they perceive that OC will negatively impact business. CC or shop elsewhere, your choice, but man, I can't believe we are wrapped around the axle on this. There are more important items to expend energy on. If a pro gun forum is this contentious on the subject, HEB is probably right with their decision as the 96% of the population without a CHL likely can't be any less contentious.........

Although we have a right to wear what ever we want while in our homes or on the streets. This right to bare arms does not extend to privately owned establishments. I look at the 30.07 as a dress code notification. Whats the big deal about covering it up?

I for one will go to the store owned run and financed by Texans. The Butts family have been pretty good to their neighbors. and HEB and Central Market has better goods than just about any store around here. Love their deli and prepared foods. If this means I have to put a shirt on zipper up or cover my my sidearm, then I will. No is telling me I have to disarm.
