“It should be entirely up to the establishment if they want to keep firearms out of their place. They should simply be required to post their position on a large sign at each entrance,”
So any “establishment” that wishes to rescind my rights of speech, religion, trial by jury, etc has a perfect RIGHT to do so?? All it has to do is post a sign: TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN—YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS HERE UNLESS I SAY SO!! That’s what the Black Panthers did at a Philly polling place a couple of years ago.
That's not the wording I posted, is it?
If it is private property, then functionally,"yes". Within reason, that is exactly what they should be able to do. If you do not wish to abide by the rules that they have set for their private business, then you have the option to take your business some place else. At that point, nobody's rights have been infringed and every one, except the busy body nanny staters should be happy.
