Several years ago we went to New Orleans and the Holiday Inn At the French quarter had an armed guard and the Walmart nearby did also. I figured now most companies are so woke they would just rather have a shooting as have an armed guard.
Pretty common across Africa, every store has armed guards. The rest of the planet, not so much.
and most of the areas in the US that have armed guards in stores .Are usually places you could call Little Africa. same people, same mentality , differant place
Armed security is usual at HEB grocery stores on my side of town, as the OP described most are thirty-ish, look like former Military. One store also has a canine sometimes.

I didn't figure they needed guards in Texas!!
There's plenty of woke corporations here who have 30.06 and 30.07 signs posted at their stores. They don't want you in the stores either concealed or open carry. But a lot of stores only have the 30.07 sign which "prohibits" open carry in their store. Concealed is OK
