OC in Monroe County

[emt805]

OCed the other day at rivers edge pizza in Dundee the other day. Had to wait 30 minutes for a deep dish pizza with only 6 other people there. Also listened to the waitress give excuses to why everyone else had their orders messed up.  Her man answer was new owners and the old staff quit. They also ran out of chips and fries the night before and had to run to kroger to have some on hand. Not sure I will be back

Ah go ahead and give them another chance, at least they're ok with OC.

Have you had any issues with OC in Meijers or Walmart?  They are two of my places I go because they are handicap friendly.  Just a bit nervous because I figure those will be the first two  I OC too.  I am not a Monroe County person, although, I love your airport...been there a lot.

We have a Airport

na just kidding, of course we have a airport, well kinda


ha

no issues with either here.  I go to walmart just about every day and Meijers once a week or so with no issues
in fact a couple weeks ago they were giving flu shots out up front by the checkouts at Walmarts.  I filled out my paperwork while the shot giver was working with another person for about 5 minutes then it was my turn, the girl shot giver was already flustered by the last person and I was joking with her and the other ladies on the check out lanes, strong side to the lanes, telling them if I fainted they would have to pick me up and put me on one of the checkout lanes and to make sure I don't hit my head when I fall, etc, no issues in total I was there about 15 to 20 minutes

In Monroe's Walmart and Meijers no one issue in over 15 month since I began Ocing

UPDATE:  just noted in one of your other post elsewhere you state that you let your cpl expire

You can NOT even go on the property of Walmart or Meijers WITHOUT a valid CPL when in possession of a weapon

they both are licensed under the Michigan Liquor commission to sell beer and wine thus without a CPL you may not even enter their parking lot with a pistol.  This includes it locked and secured in your trunk. 

I dont have the cite for that at 5 am but its well established and known..............get your cpl back if you plan on open carrying, it takes a lot of the hassle out of the equation

removed, it was a 5 am error  hit of the keyboard

Because I had just come from a funeral, as usual I CC.  As I got off my bike in the parking lot of Big Blue BBQ in Monroe, i lifted up my jacket to OC my gun.

Walked in took off my jacket exposing my Bug SW40  in my shoulder holster. 

As I was eating some mild looks, and just at the end of lunch, in comes two Monroe County Sheriff officers and sat in the booth one over from me.  as the Sheriff on the far side sat down he glanced over at me and by his facial expression, it seems to me he MAY have noticed my SW40. 

He never missed a beat and he went on talking to his partner

at the end of lunch I stood up put on my jacket and left.  No issues

Is this thread open to all or is a personal journal.   hahaha

Gerry

This thread not seems as  personal journal from any angle.

[onnie0047@gmail.com]

Any one can put it here, I just stated it and seems to the one who contributes the most.  Its not a personal Journal, I want others to add their experiences here as well.

Reason I started it, Take Iron County, for example, while reading about Ocing there is interesting, right now it has little value to me since I have not been up there in 10 years no do I plan on going back up there in the future, but its nice to see what is going up up there without going through 21,000 posts in the general OC experience area.

Oced at Lincoln Park City hall at the City Clerks office to pick up a copy of my sons Birth Certificate
Then over to Staples in Monroe
then Over to TJ Max in Monroe
 No issues

Naw, I'm a CC only, except on my own property of course. But, I support what you guys do and enjoy reading about OC. I really like spotting OC in public. I just prefer CC. Been doing it for many years that way.

Keep up the good fight

Oced today at walmart, got a Stink eye stare down from some guy but as soon as I made eye contact he stopped stinking on me!

Outside Walmarts as I was getting in my car when a guy in a car pulled up behind my car as ask me if I was carrying my gun ilegal since he thought my gun had to be concealed. He was told he had to keep it hidden when he got his "CCW" (that was the first clue he was uninformed), I told him no, open carry is within the law and said to him "let me give you one of my cards for me info", but he said no traffic in the parking lot was too bad and that he was just courious! Then drove off

should have been faster!!!!
