There is a similar, however smaller, sign on the door of a truck stop that I occasionally do business with. I think it's in Oklahoma.

If I remember correctly, it's a "warning ", as opposed to a "notice ".

If you are cowed into not exercising a right, do you really have it?




No. Those doing the "cowing" have already removed it from you (thank you for your cooperation!) and we're simply waiting on it to be codified in law.
I see a parallel with Jews willingly walking to the showers.

"People taking AR15's to malls, grocery stores and other places were there might not be all 'rational' people at is what gets legislators together to decide 'Maybe we should stop them from having firearms at all such establishments'." -Scott...

This... I understand about my rights, and the law, and all of that...

But if you take a "neutral" person with no dog in the fight, and make an ENEMY, it's hard to recover someone with nothing to lose by voting FOR gun control. I frequent pro-gun businesses as much as I can.

Sometimes, due to business, I have to go into "anti's". When I do? I take note of how much I spent, and mark it in a log. At the end of the year, I make a donation equally to the VCDL, GOA, and sometimes NRA for the total spent.

The Progressive/Communist have "Carbon Offets". I call mine "Carbine Offsets".

This is why I should be able to bring my AR to the mall, locked, loaded and ready to fire.... no questions asked...

What if even one or two people at the Westgate mall had AR's or AK's? Isn't is possible that 137 people would still be alive today?

And here at 12 or 15 mass shootings at malls in the US.

Stay out of criminal empowerment zones (no gun zones) and you should be ok. That seems to be where all the shootings take place.

No arguing, we are just discussing it. Personally if it had been me I would not have done business in a mall with a no gun sign. I tend to avoid these areas for obvious reasons. My favorite cigar shop has this front door:
