I recently received my LTC and I usually don't give my money to businesses that posts the 30.06 and .07 signs. I vote with my money so to speak. My question to all is, if your employer has those signs, does it apply to the workers as well? I think (I only gathered 3 small businesses owner's opinion; nail salon, dollar store and general merchandise) part of the businesses owners thinking is that if the criminal does get caught the signs will just be another penalty added and they are not really expecting the general LTC holders help because they are not LEO. So they let the workers carry. Are they breaking the law or the signs are just for the public?
Owners can always grant permission for anyone to carry past their 30.06/30.07 signs.

30.06/30.07 don't cause additional charges against someone unless that person has an LTC. LTC holders are the least likely of people to be committing crimes. To post these signs for that reason is stupid.
They said because you have been vetted to have an LTC does not mean you will not commit a crime (that lawyer in Houston that shot people during the summer had an LTC, the shooter in Orlando had a permit from the Government, not sure which permit he had, they mentioned he had one in the news). They know that it is not a deterrent for criminals, they just hope to add more charges if someone does commit a crime.
That is correct. Just because you have an LTC, does not rule you out for future crimes. Statistically speaking though, LTCs are far less likely to commit a crime than the general public, or even law enforcement. That being said, just because they post a sign on a door does not keep a person who is willing to do harm to people from entering. It merely means that the person willing to do harm now knows that it is likely he/she will not encounter any resistance, just like in Orlando.
