Abstract:From CVS to Wegmans, here are the five stores that have followed Walmart to in banning the open carry of firearms in their stores.
Walmart asked shoppers to stop openly carrying guns in its stores on Tuesday, following two deadly shootings in stores in El Paso, Texas, and Southaven, Mississippi.
Following Walmart, stores like Kroger and Wegmans announced they would be implementing similar policies in their stores.
Walmart also plans to stop selling some ammunition and handguns in Alaska.
Here are the five stores that have recently made the move to ban open carry of firearms in their stores.
Two deadly shootings Walmart stores are causing major companies to make a change.
After initially stating it would not change its gun sales policies after shootings in stores in Texas and Mississippi, Walmart announced it would ask shoppers not to openly carry firearms in its stores. The company also plans to stop selling ammunition for handguns and some rifles and will stop selling handguns in Alaska entirely.
“We know these decisions will inconvenience some of our customers, and we hope they will understand,” Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said in a memo to employees on Tuesday. “As a company, we experienced two horrific events in one week, and we will never be the same.”
The policy change in Walmart will not affect those who carry concealed firearms.
Following Walmart's lead, at least four other chains have announced similar changes in gun-carrying policies in their stores in less than a week.
From CVS to Wegmans, here are the five stores that are banning open carry in their stores.
