http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2014/08/daniel-zimmerman/st-louis-cabelas-protects-guns-rioters/ Here’s a TTAG Eyewitness News report from our local correspondent, Dirk Diggler, who sent these phone pics. After last night’s looting in nearby Ferguson, Missouri, the St. Louis Cabela’s store (which is located about five miles west of Ferguson in nearby Hazelwood) has taken precautions to protect its firearms inventory. The store is located in a large shopping center called the St. Louis Outlet Mall. Dirk reports that every entrance to the mall has at least one squad car on prominent display and there are policemen posted both at Cabela’s front door and inside the store . . . View Quote |

Shit... if they offered minimum wage in store credit they'd have a brigade worth of armed rednecks on guard 24/7 before nightfall.

An armed sales staff who doesn't look at all reluctant to stack bodies of looters like firewood would be an even more effective deterrent.

We could not be armed, Cabela's forbid it. However, a 1911 or Glock mag in a back pocket and a few shotgun shells in the front solved that problem. Not everyone did it, but a few of us had something to work with had we needed to defend ourselves. I never saw anyone carry concealed, but thats the whole point right.
