I just called Best Buy. They confirmed that the policy is in affect in Ohio. She also said that the policy would probably go into affect in all other states. She than told me that “there is no reason for anybody to be carrying a gun in the stores”. I asked her if there has ever been a crime committed in a Best Buy or Best Buy parking lot. She claimed there has never been one committed in a Best Buy Store (I find that very hard to believe). She admitted that there had been crimes committed in the parking lot and could not answer my question about how a person was suppose to defend themselves walking from their car to the store.
She was in a hurry to get me off the phone. I went into the licensing and training a CHL holder receives. I also told her she needs to educate herself before she makes blanket statements like she did. I said more before she rushed me off the phone, but I‘m too angry to type any more right now. It ended on me informing her that I would not be back.
