Re: Notify a business owner of unenforceable signs?

I obtained my license to carry a concealed handgun for one reason: to aid in defending myself, or my family members, or any other innocents in case of a life threatening attack from another person.

My Bible tells me that I must obey man's laws as long as they do not contradict God's laws. I try to honor God by obeying His Word; in this case, by disarming myself when it is required by law.

But I also have a moral duty to my family to protect them the best that I can. I consider the protection of my family to be a higher moral duty than to leave my family less protected in order to honor the personal wishes of a business owner.

If that business owner expresses his personal desire for me to disarm by displaying a non-legally binding sign, then my higher moral obligation is to remain armed so that I might have the opportunity to better protect my family.

However, if that business owner expresses his desire for me to disarm by way of a legally binding sign, then my higher moral obligation is to honor my God by obeying mans law.

Pretty straight forward for me.
