They are getting more and more aggressive with their "it's my right to carry a gun anywhere I want and if you don't let me it's a violation of my 2nd amendment rights" bullshit. Tons of Youtube videos including the guy in Wal-Mart who had someone taping him and three women who entered a restaurant in a Wal-Mart with guns in a side-holster (not sure if I described that correctly) that were visible.

Starbucks asked people not to bring guns into their stores, but isn't willing to enforce the rule. It's lukewarm bullshit. People are still going to do it. If anything they will become more aggressive. They took the coward's way out.
