Faced with a mounting social media campaign urging Gates-based grocer Wegmans to join retailers Kroger and Walmart in asking shoppers not to openly carry guns in any of its stores, the company said Thursday that "we prefer that customers not openly carry firearms into our stores." The company issued the statement in a tweet sent around 2:30 p.m., saying, "There's nothing more important than the safety of our customers & employees. The sight of someone with a gun can be alarming and we don't want anyone to feel that way at Wegmans. For this reason, we prefer that customers not openly carry firearms into our stores."https://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/news/2019/09/05/wegmans-open-carry-debate-shannon-watts-julieanne-moore-mums-demand-action-kroger-walmart/2219617001/?fbclid=IwAR3_vvwuzYs_m7b407QQENLTQ-CQSlXkD9GcNRBfuBwj8nPmXQcM2h2hSwM
