Here is a live link for the previous story about Judge Aldeman’s ruling:
I can understand a small business being uneasy. If I owned a business and saw a person carrying a weapons, even holstered, in my establishment I would be very nervous.
It is a question of liability. In the small town I used to live in a businessman was in the bank depositing the day’s till and accidentally dropped his gun. It went off, shooting him in the leg. The resulting hospital bills bankrupted his business.
After that incident the bank’s policy was no guns in the the bank, period. They didn’t want to be sued if some bystander was injured or killed in a similiar accident.
