OC not welcome list

[hacksawfg]

After reading about the places people have OC'ed without problem, and those where a company/store policy prevents OPEN carry, I would like to compile a list to make it easier for people where they want (or don't want) to take their hard-earned money. Comment only on NEGATIVE experiences please, only with store mgmt./company policy not general public interactions. Put a location if necessary.

Not looking for employers (unfortunately I would say most of them are against). I'm looking more for verified locations (i.e. it may be against policy, but is it actually ENFORCED at a specific place, did they actually make you leave). If you go to an AMC Theater, open carry and nobody cares, then they shouldn't be on the list. There are people with common sense out there (not easy to find). Once a place is on the list, please don't duplicate it, will make my life much easier trying to keep up with this. Also would greatly appreciate no thread jacking. Just list the place and the city.

If a place changes their policy to allow carry (unlikely with the biggies, but maybe some of the local establishment may change their minds), let me know so I can take them off the list. I'm going to try and keep up with this the best I can.

From what I've seen recently:

GENERAL POLICY
Simon Malls
The Gap
Old Navy
AMC Movie Theaters
Industrial Federal Credit Union
St. Vincent's Hospitals
Toys/Babies 'R' Us

SPECIFIC LOCATIONS
Regal Shiloh Theater Avon
Greatimes Family Fun Park Beech Grove
Glenbrook Mall Fort Wayne
Value City Greenwood
City Market Indianapolis
Victory Field Indianapolis
Indianapolis Art Musuem Indianapolis
Cirilla's Indianapolis
Ortho Indy Indianapolis
Pick a Part Indianapolis
Unique Resale Shop Merrillville
Cinemark Movies Mishawaka
FedEx Muncie

Is it just me, or is Castleton becoming the new Circle Center with the "clientele?"

You might pull together some of the info in these threads:

It would be nice to end up with a "sticky" of searchable places that do not want our business. A map would be kinda cool, too.

Ever since Lafayette Square closed down, Castleton has slowly gone downhill. We don't shop there (other than Sears) any longer, unless my wife and her mother go early on a weekday.

If we must go to a "mall", we go to Metropolis or Clay Terrace.

It is a logistical nightmare unless you have endless hours to complile mind numbingly boring info. Try getting an RPG player to help in the info recording process...

I tried to get 4-5 guys to help, each take a sector of Indiana and keep track of it but no one else helped out and too many guys want to go off-track so early, like post #3 or so...

I go to Castleton for Von Maur only, park outside VM, enter, purchase, and leave the same door I entered.

Clay Terrace is within walking distance for me.

Sorry guys, you can have your thread back now

coded language for soccer moms.

Actually, the Castleton Mall one is a bit misleading. It's not just Castleton, it's ALL Simon Properties. All of their malls and properties are no carry zones (not just OC, but CC, too). OC will just get you noticed sooner and ejected.

...If it gets too long I'll probably try to make a spreadsheet or something to keep the original post short...

Already been started. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqK1t4j14V-VdFE2Sk53Q3Y1cGU0QjZjVVNDaF83RlE#gid=0

Just added my employer.

Don't understand the "No Money" column though.

Not really looking for employers (unfortunately I would say most of them are against). I'm looking more for verified locations (i.e. it may be against policy, but is it actually ENFORCED at a specific place, did they actually make you leave). If you go to an AMC Theater, OC, and nobody cares, then they shouldn't be on the list until it's a problem. There are people with common sense out there (not easy to find).

It may be mind-numbingly boring, but lets see how far we can get anyway, I'm hoping the negative EXPERIENCE's will be a short list.

<edit> added most of this text to first page

I'm working on an available online map guys......keep the list coming

 

[the1kidd03]

deleted, didn't work

i didnt make the spreadsheet but i think the no money column is for people that was at the location and was asked to leave will no longer spend money their.

 

[eldirector]

Is this something that folks would like?

I can grant edit rights to some folks, if you want to update it. PM me....

 

[the1kidd03]

I've been working on something like this http://www.zeemaps.com/335252

people can add to it, edit, etc.......and the color of the marker can be changed to indicate how 2A friendly the place is

 

[GBuck]

I was the one that started the spreadsheet the last time this came up. Someone else added the no money column. The sheet was good but lost interest quickly. Perhaps if it was made a sticky as suggested.... Lol

Might work even better, I have no problem if it does. In fact, might almost be easier if anybody can ADD to it (don't duplicate, though). Maybe start a new thread, add instructions on how to add/edit the map, and have people bump when they do so (in order for the mods to see it's active and hopefully sticky the thing). Having this stuff all in one place will make life much easier for everybody vs. having to do thread searches, etc. I don't care about format, but as someone who just got his LTCH this Wednesday (still haven't carried yet, no holster, but when I get it and carry it will mainly be OC), I would love to know where to stay away from when I am carrying.

As long as you guys know that -

Yes, it may be against the rules or a policy of a business to carry there or maybe it was just a manager that day that doesn't like guns personally or to satisfy his own agenda.

- Please Don't Stop Carrying at places that don't respect the U.S. Constitution and the Freedoms within. Policies change and so do employees and management regimes but this "change" can move faster with some help from us.

We the people need to exercise our given rights by educating the [STRIKE]morons[/STRIKE] general population with the common sense that we all share as gun owners.

Just because you're kicked out of a place one time or you read on some list that a place isn't gun friendly should not discourage you or others from living your lives comfortably and safely.



They say leave, go away but Carry there another day.
