T-Mobile has apologized to an off-duty detective who reported being asked to leave an Oregon store Sunday because of his holstered service weapon.
“We have investigated this issue at one of our independently owned and operated stores in Oregon,” Jon Freier, executive vice president of T-Mobile’s U.S. Retail, tweeted Tuesday. “While isolated at this one store with their employee, it’s clearly unacceptable. We will be taking the appropriate actions to ensure this does not happen again.”
Grants Pass Police Community Officer Jennifer Brown, wife of Detective Ryan Brown, first reported the incident to the Blue Lives Matter organization, alleging that her husband was refused service from the T-Mobile store on Terry Lane because of his firearm. more
If T Mobile is going to ban permitted gun carriers from their store in Grants Pass, they might as well close up their store and go away. GP and Josephine county has very few LEOs, and marijuana growing is major “industry” with all the associated crime that goes with it, so concealed carry is a way of life for a significant segment of the population.
Grants Pass is where we do most of our business and I’ll avoid any store that has a problem with me carrying.
Oregon, the land of fruits and nuts.
