two days later auto zone fired devin mclean.ording to auto zone corporate policy, they have a zero tolerance policy for employees bringing weapons inside the store. >> i know that's a rule but at times there needs to be exceptions to rules. >> lost merchandise, lost money. >> auto zone doesn't care if they lose money. they do care if one of their employees or customers gets hurt. what if devin would have shot or hit another customer? i kind of get auto zone's point. i don't like it but i get it. >> he's obviously a bit of a hero in his community. so people feel like he should have been commended and not fired for what he did. >> that's exactly right. if you go to the auto zone corporate website, so many people are angry about it they pledge not to do business with auto zone anymore. >> you have the right to protect yourself or others if put into a situation. if i can save someone's life, i put that way above, you know, store policy. >> apparently at least one turkey survived the slayings from thanksgiving and then took up a job
