SEATTLE – This week, Molly-Moon Neitzel posted a sign outside her Capitol Hill ice cream shop.

“Police officers, Molly Moon’s is a gun free zone. Please do not come inside if you are wearing a firearm,” the sign reads.

Moon-Neitzel, who owns nine ice cream shops across the region, said the signs only hang at the Capitol Hill location.

“They were intimidating and causing some of my black and brown employees to feel unsafe.”

Moon-Neitzel said police officers are welcome if they are not armed.

She said she supports the Black Lives Matter movement and efforts to defund the Seattle Police Department.

“I think the awakening that is happening by white Seattleites that we need to do more to protect Black lives – and to tear down systemic and institutional racism is a very, very good thing to be happening.”
