You should probably just ban someone and say it is an imitation ban.
Ahh... that brings back fond memories of another favorite INGO thread:

Ban Hammer: The Game!
Sorry, I just had to. People are just being too darn nice around here.Originally Posted by DadOfFour
I normally OC, for a variety of reasons....here's a few:
1) I can draw faster (if need be) if I don't have to pull jackets and shirts out of my way
Since it is exposed, someone else will come and take it from you.
Good luck, I've done more weapon retention training than I care to remember!
2) Visual deterrent. Much like the cop car in the bank parking lot, the bad guy sees my gun, knows I'm not an easy target leaves me alone, additionally he probably won't try anything stupid in my general vicinity because he knows there's a gun present.
It will make you the first target.
That's actually a somewhat valid argument, however speaking for myself, I'm pretty hyper-vigilant as to my surroundings when I'm carrying
3) It's generally more comfortable for me then trying to hide a big ol 45 on me (I'm a smaller built guy)
You need to find a smaller gun.
But, but, I'm compensating for my larger than average....
4) It's my GD RIGHT to carry however I see fit
But...but...you should use Common Sense!
Why? Nobody else in our society does, especially the libs!
5) It pisses off my liberal as F ex-mother-in-law
Sorry, I just can't argue with that.
That's because of all my reasons, this is far and away the best one in the whole world! If only it would **** off my ex wife too lol
Those are just a few reasons. Oh, and you can bet I've probably got a CC piece that you can't see too
Yeah, I dunno what's up with all the nicey nice, warm fuzzy stuff, yall better snap outta it!
My responses are in blue (if I did it right)

*Response to a post from a different thread :
You have my attention... I'm fairly dumb.
Nope, there is no property right to disarm me.
As free citizens on a property open to the public, of course they have the right to enter or exit for any or no reason at all.
Why not? If they have opened their property to the public, I bring all of my rights with me. They may revoke my attendance on their property as they wish but said attendance was never one of my rights to begin with, it was merely an open invitation.
The employees can, but whether or not they SHOULD is probably a decision best left to those in authority above them, lest they get reprimanded or fired for booting too many people according to their own thoughts or phobias.
Easy straw man for you to knock down there. What is actually claimed is similar to what many other national companies have adopted as policy: allow store carry according to the carry laws of the state the store is in.
When you attempt to turn that simple concept into something else, it immediately categorizes you with the uneducated.
How can you back up this claim? Are you certain? I've seen several other national chains state this as their policy.
That's nonsense. If it were true, they could physically disarm me when I stepped on their property.
Their only right is to have me leave, taking every one of my intact rights with me.
Though asking to speak to a manager as you comply may result in a simple correction of their subordinate employee before you even exit.
There are actually many reasons. I refuse to be limited simply because you do not grasp or accept them.
Your condescension and fearmongering have been duly noted but simply do not warrant a rational response.
You mean think exactly as you do? That's what most people are really thinking when they throw that one out there. I usually just laugh.

Tried to rep you for this awesome response and how kind of you to drag it from the thread it was in to where it actually belongs.
