I was in Home Depot last week with my Bro-in-law and we were discussing CCW with one of the employees. We were told that Home Depot don't allow their employees to carry nor posses their firearms in their car on home Depot property. I spend a lot of $$$ there as I send my employees there for tools and materials for projects we do. I will not be spending my $ there anymore!
i also just read this on FB:
Dear Home Depot:
Tonight I discovered the Home Depot does not support the 2nd Amendment, and the right to bear arms.
I was shopping with my wife, and 7 year old daughter, picking out paint colors for our new home. We had several items in our cart, and were having our paint shaken when a store associate approached me and asked to speak to me. He asked me to remove my weapon from the store, as Home Depot is a "weapon free zone." I quietly said that I would find another place to shop, and left the store. On my way out the door I checked just to make sure, and sure enough, there was no sign on your door stating no firearms allowed.
I am an Air Force veteran, and possess a valid license to carry a concealed weapon within the state of Iowa. So I left the Home Depot and drove down to my local Mendards store, where they had no problem with my legal carry of a weapon. You can see from the receipt below that you missed out on a fair chunk of money, and this is just the first trip of many as we renovate our newly purchased home. I will also make sure to let everyone I know, that the Home Depot doesn't support the 2nd Amendment, and somehow believes that criminals will follow their "no weapon zone."
