Once people realize the No Gun Zone signs are for legal protection and not firearm/criminal protection ...
So, if someone is driving down the road, has to pee, stops at a gas station,
sees the sign on the door,
’No Guns Here’ - ‘Gun Free Zone’,
they go back to the car, remove their gun, then go back in.
While waiting in line to pay for their coffee/donut.
Place is robbed at gunpoint, and that person is shot in the leg.
Liability, due diligence, to prevent risks that could cause injury,
slippery ice on a sidewalk,
aggressive dog with a known history of biting,
hole in sidewalk in front of the door,
preventing you from defending yourself.
In fact the ‘sign’ itself, says;
”Come in here, no one can shoot you”The owner of that private business, has taken the responsibility away from you, and said, they will do it.
That owner, (because they put up the sign) did not protect you from a foreseeable danger.
The same as putting up a sign;
'You will not slip on the Ice'When their is no ice outside,
then suddenly their is a ice storm.
I do believe the Lawyers will line up around the block for that one !
