Levi

Les:
I guess Levi Strauss and Co. doesn't need my business.  I understand his viewpoint but I'll look for other options.  https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/open-letter-customers-our-weapons-policy-chip-bergh

Mali:
I haven't worn Levi's for a VERY long time so my nott supporting them wouldn't be much of a change This final paragraph really bugs me, though.


--- Quote ---It boils down to this: you shouldn’t have to be concerned about your safety while shopping for clothes or trying on a pair of jeans. Simply put, firearms don't belong in either of those settings. In the end, I believe we have an obligation to our employees and customers to ensure a safe environment and keeping firearms out of our stores and offices will get us one step closer to achieving that reality.

If you feel that your customers should have a safe environment then why in the blazes are you asking people to NOT bring in guns while they shop. Especially in Europe where attacks are statistically far more likely?!? Typical kneejerk response to a single instance. Wonder if he has any idea of how many people carried into that same store before that single incident?

There was so much derp in that entire statement, I really didn't have any intention or inclination to go through it point by point.  Actually it's a similar response from business's we've seen recently in the news  Just thought I'd share. 

m morton:
this would be the same guy that will look at a no guns sign on a stores door after a shooting and wonder why it did not work ....

GreyGeek:
I didn't see in that open letter a promise to indemnify customers or their relatives when, not if, an armed gunman or Jihadist shoots up one of their stores.   Not willing to put his money where his mouth is?

My wardrobe is primarily jeans and jean shirts, but none will be Levi's from now on.
