I think maybe we are presuming that they need a reason to ask you yo leave. ????
They don't. They can just say "leave" and you have to. It is private property.
I understand your argument about asking a non-CPL holder to cover. I get it. And if it only went that far, you might be right. But if you retort with "well that's illegal because I don't have a CPL" then the business can just say "leave" and you don't really have a choice. Again, they don't need a reason. If you really want one, they could just say "we don't allow guns. Leave."
I haven't seen a response yet that negates my examples validity as an "unlawful condition" if imposed by the premise owner. Based on item (2) in the RCW your 3rd choice is not legally required, and your 2nd choice might be defensible in court.
