Not shopping at Hobby Lobby anymore

zebov · 09-24-2009

So the wife and I went to Hobby Lobby the other day here in Lafayette and I noticed a sign on their entrance that said something along the lines of "We reserve the right to search any person, their vehicles, and their baggage at any time for any reason." I pointed this out to my wife and she was appalled. Suffice to say, we'll never be going there again.

Now, of course, there is no way I'd ever let them search me. They can ask me to leave if they want and I would oblige, but the only one searching me is a LEO with a warrant or probable cause. And God help them if they were to try to detain me. The law doesn't look too kindly on kidnapping.

I've seen that sign. I don't let it bother me, since I wouldn't permit them to do a search anyway.

I certainly won't miss going to Hobby Lobby. I don't think I've ever even been there.

It's already been covered.

Yes it already has been covered, but I missed it the first time. Some things should be brought up every now and then. True this could have been brought up after searching for "Hobby Lobby" but...

So maybe a mod will merge the files

I'm guessing this was posted to help deter shoplifters. I never go there but I wouldn't let this sign bother me nor would I let them search me.

Just let a spinning back-kick to the solar-plexus of the little old lady who asks to check your receipt tell them all they need to know. Don't Tread on Me!

And walk away.

^^^ Did that cause some coffee to end up on your keyboard?
