Pulling Up the Tent Stakes - Reason #7,230
Driving north for some skiing anytime soon?
If so, should you find yourself in need of a gallon of milk, a cup of coffee, a bag of Doritos, or a 12-pack of Old Milwaukee, might I suggest the Exit 3 Travel Stop in Portsmouth, New Hampshire?
Store Clerk Says He'll Continue To Carry Gun
Gee, I guess their "No Guns Allowed" sign wasn't printed in a language the gun-toting scumbag could understand. You can bet your ass the muzzle end of Mr. Soiett's Glock sure as hell was, though.
Welcome to America, Mr. Batel. Glad to have you here!
As opposed to an unarmed store clerk who could just use his or her Jedi Knight mind tricks to convince the armed thug to lay down his weapon and lead a life of good will and charity.
If part of your job description includes tracing chalk outlines around dead convenience store clerks, then I have a few suggestions what you can do with your opinion there, Chief.
Not surprising - it's not easy to comment with your head so far up your ass that there's no room to squeeze in a microphone.

Store Clerk Says He'll Continue To Carry Gun
PORTSMOUTH, N.H. -- A store clerk fired for bringing a gun to work has a new job at another store.
Bruce Soiett said that he always brings his .45-caliber handgun to work. He used to work at a Cumberland Farms in Greenland, and on Dec. 7, the store was robbed at gunpoint. When the thief ran, Soiett followed him.
"I yelled at him to stop, and he turned with the gun," Soiett said. "I fired two quick shots because I thought he was going to shoot at me."
No one was hit, and the robber was never caught. Soiett lost his job because Cumberland Farms has a no-weapon policy. The owner of the Exit 3 Travel Stop in Portsmouth was happy to hire him.
Gee, I guess their "No Guns Allowed" sign wasn't printed in a language the gun-toting scumbag could understand. You can bet your ass the muzzle end of Mr. Soiett's Glock sure as hell was, though.
"We feel more comfortable having people who can stand up for themselves," store owner Bharat Batel said.
Welcome to America, Mr. Batel. Glad to have you here!
Greenland Police Chief Mike Maloney said that while Soiett has every right to pack heat at work, he has some concerns.
"The clerk might get killed over $200," Maloney said.

"I find, in my opinion, it's just best to let us do our jobs."

Soiett said that as long as he has a job at a convenience store, his gun will be loaded, just in case.
"If you come in and rob from me, you may get more than your money," he said.
Cumberland Farms could not be reached for comment.
