My bank is not posted

The CU we use has a large sign (white letters on glass) at every entrance at every branch, that states, "The Credit Union prohibits the carrying of firearms on these premises except by peace officers who are required to do so by law."

Not a 30.06 posting, no, but we use the drive-through as much as possible & only go in when absolutely necessary.

Every branch also has an (unarmed) security guard patrolling the lobby.

Even so, they're still one of the more frequently robbed financial institutions in the county.

Someday, when I get everything paid off, I'll gladly look at moving our accounts. The only reason we started banking there, years ago, was because I used to work there (long before concealed carry was passed) and they helped us through some financial difficulties early on.

I also carry into my bank. As my favorite signature line goes..."Carry 24/7 or guess right".

I quit my bank (actually CU) when we discovered their signage. The big reason I joined them in the first place was because they had a branch on site at my work, then we started using the branch near my house and saw the sign, so I switched.

When they asked me why I was quitting, I told them it was their discriminatory policies.

Yes maam & when it happens in that particular CU, that unarmed security guard will shout at the robbers:
"If you dont stop pointing that gun at our good customers & highly trained employees I am going to holler louder for you to stop pointing that gun at good & loyal customers & highly trained employees while we all sheepishly continue to comply w/ your demands."

Thank you sir. The simplest truths of life elude us sometimes if we are not reminded daily w/ the simple statements.

I carry my gun to the bank/credit union. I'm guessing that the thugs like tho rob those kinds of places.

I would not go in one without my firearm if I have the choice. My CU is not posted.

Yep - I do at mine. no posting of any kind. I did have a CD only at another bank because they had a good rate. My wife and I went in and were doing the paperwork to open the CD when I looked up from the desk we were sitting at and in the back of the lobby on what looked like an employee bulletin board was a compliant 30.06. It was the farthest (sp) point from the front door and was actually on a side wall on the bulletin board. Don't have the CD there anymore.

I also carry when in the bank. If they post, move my money elsewhere.

I just blew coffee all over my new laptop at this. Here we go again.

LT, I guess I will have to trade off all my plastic for more 1911's---(your in a deep sleep, listen to the sound of my voice, ttade off the plastic for 1911's)

Man what a bad dream that was.
