Just saw my first "No Firearms" Sign

[rikilii]

FYI: It was at the Chucky Cheese in Levittown.

The sign said "No Firearms Allowed" and something like "Violators will be treated as trespassers."

I conceal carry there all the time... Never saw the sign, thanks for the heads up!

Yep. Those signs really help a lot. I've personally seen 7 criminals stop and turn around after seeing similar signs elsewhere.

it was actually 8 of them.

I wish businesses would get it right and just put up "No criminals allowed" signs. I bet that would make a huge difference.!!!

I see there are a lot of threads about places that are not carry friendly. I think we should make a serious effort to boycott those places. If we put our wallets away and let them know why maybe we can change the policy at some of them. I know it may be an inconvenice but I think it would be worth it.
I have been avoiding places I know to have a policy against lawfull carry but I have never informed the managers. I think I will start to let them know why. It will take a lot more than lossing just my money but if many of us do it who knows.

Maybe a better way would be ask them what is allowed.
Bombs? Knives? Swords? Bow and arrows? Hatchets?, Axes? Ball bats, Boards with nails in them? Bullwhips? Etc.
Start a dialogue, reminding them that anything can be used as an instrument of crime, and a better sign would be, "No crime!". Then ask if they really believe a person with criminal intent would leave after reading a sign.
Then suggest that not allowing lawful carry only assures unarmed victims.

The start a dialogue approach has been tried and does not seem to work. I have found that arguing with an anti is akin to arguing religion, you can never get the other person to listen to your reasoning with an open mind. They just start to spout cliches and things they have "heard".
I think in dealing with buisnesses money will speak louder then words.

I carry all the time, and I respect written posting of a premise, as well as verbal advice on the part of an authorized agent. So, in effect, since I always carry, and I respect property rights and don't go in, aren't I boycotting already?
