There is very little that cannot be ordered off of the internet these days. Buying products at a physical, brick-and-mortar location is a convenience to me. If they want to play silly little feel-good games, then that is, pardon the pun, their business. Those signs still won't stop criminals from bringing a firearm onto that property.
They're twice as effective as the laws prohibiting handguns in schools and bars.

Re: Private Property Posted Parking

Trespassing law is not restricted to buildings. A private property owner can give notice that no trespassing is allowed on their forest land, in their corporate executive parking lot, or their land around their chemical plant. Valid 30.06 notice is required to prohibit someone with a CHL from carrying a handgun if that's the reason for trespassing. No specialized notice is required to prohibit rifles, video cameras, or handguns carried under MPA. A simple sign is valid notice.

The parking lot law only protects some employees. It does not protect customers of a business, visitors, delivery people, or vendors, if they park in a free lot provided by a business. It does not protect customers who pay to park in a lot or garage downtown.

I won't connect the dots so I don't provide the checklist for an anti gun company or organization.
