I think TX Rancher makes an excellent point. Everyone is going to look at the invalid sign differently from an ethical stanpoint.

Personally, I look at two things:

1. Did they get the sign close to wording and valid layout? If so, then I am going to abide by it and either not patronize them, or, if I really want/need their product, disarm and go in.

2. If the sign is totally invalid, is this the only place I can shop and get the item? If so, I may make a choice to disregard the sign and shop anyway. If possible, I will just move on down the road and go to another business that does not try to post.

Understand, these are places that have signs with verbiage in an attempt to prohibit concealed carry (not just the Ghostbusters no Beretta sign.)

If a rancher paints his trees with purple paint, even if not properly, I look at it like the close sign; he has made an attempt to follow the guidelines and I will respect his warning.

Each person has to make up their own minds in every situation as to how to handle it.
