Re: Dispelling a myth about "no guns allowed" signs

I most definitely have busted a myth. People on this forum think "a no guns allowed sign with no 30.06 or 30.07 sign means I'm safe to carry here" which isn't the case. The business owner clearly doesn't want your business. Every business I've been to with a "no guns allowed" sign has been very unfriendly and people on this forum think they're immune from trespassing. These are the same people who walk into businesses with improper 30.06 signs thinking they can walk right in with no problem. This is completely wrong.

Dispelling a myth about "no guns allowed" signs

I see this repeated by friends and people on this forum and it needs to be corrected. The myth: No guns allowed signs are not enforceable, only the 30.06 and 30.07 sign. Wrong wrong WRONG. No guns allowed has force of law by the business owner or an agent authorized to act on their behalf. Open carrying into a business that lacks a 30.07 sign does not mean you cannot be asked to leave. If a business owner asks you to leave, you leave. Otherwise you'll be arrested for trespassing.

This blatant ignoring of "No Guns Allowed" signs is absurd. The only difference between NGA and 30.07 is the latter informs you that you're trespassing as soon as you enter. This doesn't make us immune from being asked to leave.
