I just wanted you to know you have lost my business with your "No Guns Allowed Signs" If you deny me as a citizen the ability to protect myself, you will no longer see our business...
Joann's response:
Dear XXXX,
Thank you for contacting Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores Customer Service. We apologize for our delay in responding.
Thank you for contacting us about the prohibition against concealed weapons and the sign posted at our Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store. After thoughtful consideration, Jo-Ann decided to post the signs to create a comfortable shopping environment and experience for our customers.
Jo-Ann recognizes that there are strong feelings on this issue, and that permit-holders are exercising their state right.
Jo-Ann also is exercising its right under state law to post the sign. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
You may contact Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores Customer Service via phone at 1-888-739-4120, Monday through Saturday, 9 am - 7 pm Eastern Time.
Thank you,

My Response:
As you state that is your right.
I also have a right to spend my monies elsewhere.
Why would you ask a legal citizen to give up the right to protect themselves?
Surly you are intelligent enough to realize that when you need a police officer, they are only 10 minutes away…Why do I say that. I’m a police officer! We cannot be everywhere, and a citizen should have the ability to protect themselves.
I wish your company well in the future, but you will not benefit from me or my wife’s business. We also own a quilting company and as of today; we will find another supplier for our needs.
The end result is your company has taken a stance to deny citizens their 2nd amendment right as legal concealed weapon permit holders. These are the very citizens who have made your company a profitable business.
When a person carry’s a weapon concealed I fail to see how this can create an uncomfortable shopping experience.
I will post my question and your reply for others to see.
Thank you for taking the time to respond.
