I don't stand in the rain outside the door of every establishment and fastidiously read every sign on the door before entering. If I am ever asked to leave (never have been), I will leave and never return.

Agreed. However, I will not KNOWINGLY patronize an anti-gun establishment, especially one so vehement about it.

Sorry he-man but relationships are a compromise. I get what you're saying but I was already in a sh!tty mood and just didn't want to argue. Again, not an excuse but I kind of liked the fact that I was breaking their rule. Won't be going there again so the $7 I spent there is all they're ever going to get from me.

and if your spouse tells you to sacrifice a young child to the demi god Baal, would you do it to compromise
i think it was Solomon that did it

i don't sacrifice my beliefs for no anyone

And the winner for the stupidest comparison on planet earth is.... drum roll please........

Yeah I have to agree. That comparison is a bit extreme. I'll admit that I shouldn't have given them my money but what's done is done. We all think the signs are stupid. The end.

My "GUESS" would be that the sign gives "constructive notice" that entering contrary to the sign would be a trespass.:confused:

If a business hates our rights, then why should be give them money?

"I went to a rights hating business and supported them anyways...."

Really people? Are we really that stupid?

Probably not a good idea. If you do this, make sure not to get caught. Vandalism/graffiti being illegal and all.

On the other hand, getting stickers made of that rubber-like stuff that sticks to glass would let you place your sticker without worrying about a vandalism charge...

Notice of trespass?

How substantially would that sign be any different than the "no guns" sign that Westfield posts on their shopping malls, where you would still have to be discovered, formally issued a "no trespass" order, and subsequently violate that order, before you could be arrested for trespass?

Agreed, I updated my post to say "A no firearms sign is not a notice of trespass?"

I understood it perfectly when I posted it the first time LOL

How far are you willing to take that? Only when the business hates YOUR rights? Or when the business hates anyone's rights? I don't think there are very many retail chains who respect their employees' rights to carry firearms. So, if the business only tells certain people that they are not allowed to carry a firearm, that is OK with you so long as they don't tell you that you are not allowed to carry? What if the owner of a business approaches another customer and tells them verbally that they can't have their firearm in the business but never approaches you and does not posts signs? Is it then OK with you to give them business because they are only hating the other person's rights and not yours?

A clear no guns sticker is the first line.

If I heard the manager saying that to another customer I would tell him/her to post it. If I was still waiting for food when I heard that I would leave. If food had arrived then it would be my last meal there.

No. Do not ever suggest to a manager, owner, or anyone else that they post a business. Make them individually eject each and every person they see, and thereby give them the opportunity to educate the manager or owner. And in the case of a manager, I'd ask for the owner's contact information so I could determine (after leaving) whether or not the manager was obeying the owner's wishes.
