Another reason Best Buy sucks
As if you needed another reason:
Several weeks ago, Ohioans For Concealed Carry began receiving reports of new “no-guns” signs appearing at Best Buy locations in Ohio. Initially, it appeared this may have been a result of store managers having been mislead by out-of-state companies who are peddling “compliance kits” that contain “no-guns” signs, and falsely claiming that state law requires them to be posted. In fact, in at least one Best Buy store, the sign that is posted was obtained from one of these companies, G-Neil.
As additional reports of these postings came I, we educated those making the reports about how these out-of-state companies have been falsely claiming signs are required, and encouraged them to contact Best Buy’s corporate headquarters in Minnesota about the issue.
Unfortunately, it now appears that Best Buy has joined the list of business ban hypocrites – corporations whose policy seems to suggest that they believe Ohioans are less likely to be responsible with concealed firearms than their customers in other states

Haha. I open carried in Best Buy in Virginia just last week. No sign, no hassle. (I didn’t buy anything tho.)
I know quite a few Ohioans, and I can see what Best Buy is worried about. Those people are crazy. (But I love them any way, ’cause they’re family.)
Target had the same thing happen in Minn. when they’re CCW law came up. But they refused to put up signs.
