Subject: [NCNF] Urban Legend - Home Depot going 'anti'
From: "skypod \(Melissa\)"

Here's the scoop. This morning we spoke to the person in charge
of ALL Home Depot's nationwide policy. Every policy must cross
his desk to be approved. He explicitly told us that
1. HOME DEPOT does *NOT* prohibit legal concealed carry; in
fact, they consider it to be ridiculous and a public safety
hazard. They do not have anything in their books on this issue,
nor do they plan on putting it in their books. If it's legal in
your state to carry concealed, you can carry in Home Depot, as
long as you are following state law. Needless to say, if you are
trying to have people notice you are carrying and your weapon is
exposed or you are creating a public nuisance with a gun, you
will be asked to leave. Corporate realizes that almost all CCW
permit holders are legal and sane, and they will not discriminate
against them.
2. Any store posting against legal concealed carry is VIOLATING
Corporate Policy -- that is, they are not allowed to post these
signs because there is no policy providing for a manager to post
these signs. If they post signs against legal concealed carry,
they are acting without Home Depot authority and should be
reported.
The person who oversees Home Depots operations has given us his
direct office phone number to contact him with any stores that
are posted. If you know of any Home Depot manager that is
currently posting signs prohibiting legal concealed carry in
their store, please email us with the store number, address,
phone number, manager's name, and the wording and location of the
sign(s) so we can let Home Depot know, and those signs will be
taken down.
Please post this to all pro-rights, pro-gun and pro-American
groups so this urban legend can be stopped.
