Yes, but if you put a sign up then you best be prepared to enforce your rur rules. that means you make sure nobody enters that mall with a weapon. You have to pay for security. People disobey laws all the time. Criminals don’t care about laws and they don’t care about rules either.
There was nothing in that mall to stop that shooter from walking in there with a backpack full of weapons. He didn’t care one bit about some stupid sign posted because he knew that nobody was there to stop him from coming into that mall. Keep in mind, many people probably don’t even pay attention to signs posted.
I have never understood why leftists think that laws will stop criminals. “Oh, lets hurry and make a law” LOL They do not stop criminals because we have a shitload of laws and an even bigger shitload of crimes.
If it wasn’t for this one young man putting himself into the line of that criminal’s fire, many more people would have been dead.
If the Simon Malls want a damn gun free zone, then they need to open their pockets and enforce their rules. Otherwise a sign is a merely a joke.

I can’t argue with that. A “No firearms permitted.” sign means the exact same thing as one that says “Only criminals can carry firearms here.”
That’s yet another reason why I won’t shop at a place that prohibits firearms.
