I was with you right up until this part above.

The property owner's rights are no more important than my rights. I have a right to carry unless a law prohibits me from doing so. I'll give a property owner the benefit of the doubt if they try to post 30.06 correctly under the law but maybe have the letters a bit too small or are missing a word or two. But a gunbusters sign without even an attempt at valid 30.06 language? No way. If the property owner wants to assert his right to subjugate my rights, he's going to have to at least ATTEMPT to follow the spirit AND letter of the law.

If property owners wants credibility with the public, then they will follow all laws - not just the ones that are "easy" for them to follow. I follow all laws regarding carry, even though some of them can be a pain. I expect property owners to do the same.
