Walgreens
Walgreens fired an employee for using a firearm to defend himself during a robbery..I sent a little email..just in case anyone here is inclined to follow suit
As a long time customer, I have learned that you recently fired an employee for using a firearm to defend his life in a robbery attempt at your store. As a Marine veteran and firearm owner who carries everyday (including YOUR stores here in the Gainesville Florida area) I find this preposterous. Be advised, with your stand on firearms and employee safety, my family and I will take our business elsewhere, and I'm advising everyone I know to do the same.

Well said Mike, thank you. I am passing this along as well. With a Walgreens on every corner, I hope there will be an impact!

I hope the guy wins his law suite big time. Did you see the video? The robber tried to fire at him 3 times clear as day in the video. I found this comment interesting that someone made on the news story.
"Review of Walgreens' 8-Ks, it netted $6 mil in income collecting on Corporate Owned Life Insurance (AKA Dead Peasant Insurace AKA Dead Pharmacist Insurance) in FY2007, ten million dollars in FY2008, and five million dollars in FY2009."

I have my prescriptions at Walgreens because of the convenience of being able to get them refilled anywhere.
That story made me start looking elsewhere. Then Walgreens sent me a letter informing me that next year they will no longer honor my prescription plan. Hasta la vista Walgreens!

How about the military base shooting last yr it was I think.. And the one I just heard about in a IHOP where some of our national guard were gunned down by some $hithead followed by more shooting in the parking lot and none of these men were allowed to carry guns on them.. That is what is way beyond my comprehension.
Maybe someone can explain it to me..

I agree Mike. I will do likewise. These people need to realize that action have consequences.
