Has anyone seen a public store posted against firearms
I have never seen it, obvious exceptions aside. Wondering if anyone has ever been in a store and discovered it posted against firearms. Sometimes when I’m waiting for the GF to catch up I peruse the bulletin board looking.
Which raises the question if a store denies the right where do they legally need to inform you. I feel it should be on the front door like NO SHIRTS,NO SHOES,NO GUNS. Or can they hide in the corner on the bulletin board so as not to draw attention yet screw you over if they choose. Or is it our responsibility to check ahead.
And if anyone has encountered restrictive storefronts let us know so we can patronize 2nd amendment friendly owners.FUCK BIDEN

Re: Has anyone seen a public store posted against firearms
I dont think big chains should regulate civilian carrying. Thats like saying no cigars(lit or unlit) in the building...both are legal, its just one has a unfourtunate history of death and blood...

Re: Has anyone seen a public store posted against firearms
I can't recall specific retail stores. The Galleria Mall in Center City, Philly is posted. Sports arenas and some nightclubs have signs. Oddly enough, some city area SHOOTING RANGES are posted, incredibly.
I'm guessing in a large city, where most liberal urbanites have never even seen a gun, it doesn't even occur to people in small stores to post it. Larger places/venues probably post because their corporate lawyers tell them to. Ranges have no excuse.

Re: Has anyone seen a public store posted against firearms
Yes they do, but the cigars are good anyway!
All they can do is ask you to leave. If you stay, then you are trespassing and you have the potential for a problem with law enforcement.
Has anyone here ever been asked to leave a store because they were carrying? Open or concealed?Never underestimate the value of early training.

Re: Has anyone seen a public store posted against firearms
1. Galleria -- I don't shop there anyway, though you do sometimes need to walk through to get from the trains to the street. This one is a strange case, though -- I'm not sure who put up the sign; I doubt it was the individual stores, since they don't have signs in other locations. And I don't recall any other local malls posted, so I'm guessing it's some officious busybody in city bureaucracy.
2. Arenas -- the no firearms signs are for concerts, not games. Generally I wouldn't pack for a big concert, anyway, since I reserve the right to drink.
3. Nightclubs -- it's usually strip clubs that have the no firearms signs (and often have metal detectors)...not my cup of tea to begin with.
4. Gun ranges -- absolutely. An anti-gun range is inexcusable.

Re: Has anyone seen a public store posted against firearms
Yes, but private property is just. So if it is plainly posted and you enter anyway I would think they reserve the right to prosecute. That's what I'm wondering about.
You have to realize that I am ignorant towards much of this having never lived anywhere near anything even remotely caled a "city". always gun friendlry areas
with occasional trips to urban areas.
This forum permits the exhange of views from vastly different environments of Pa., which is a very useful tool, at least for me.FUCK BIDEN
