Conceal Carry Restrictions

If I need it, I'm gonna have it. Deal with the aftermath as it comes.

I have to ask. Have you, or do you know anyone personally ever had to endure the aftermath? You may want to reconsider. Sometimes stubborn folks can get themselves into a mess.....are they alive? yep, but staring at cinder bock walls and/or going into financial and mental breakdowns just isn't worth it. In my opinion anyways.

Following rules isn't that hard...especially if your financial and mental state of mind depend on it.
 
Honestly, many private businesses here aren't posted. I think that's left over from when it was more difficult to get permits. It still isn't easy but it is easier.
Permit holders are supposed to know municipal buildings are no carry. Large corporations usually have some sort of policy, but it has to be posted. Small businesses usually don't have anything posted.
I like having a permit (let's not turn this into a constitutional carry discussion, things are what they are) I'm not going to endanger that just because, frankly, I want to both make a statement and be an a$$h00l about it.

Yes.
 
Expecting law officers to ditch their weapons is plain silly. When I had my joint, I was always glad to see them. Law officers in uniform and RC Priests, the only ones we have here, were given a substantial discount. Half off. Now, if I got to place with such a sign and I have my old Colt Cobra carry, I pay the sign no mind. Chances are no one will notice it in my pocket. If they do, "Ah, so sorry".

The law which bugs me in my state is we are only allowed one ccw at a time on our person. I like to carry both a Colt Commando and the old Cobra. Twelve is better than six.

not personally but i've served on a grand jury. you don't want to get caught, you don't want to argue, the hole gets deeper and darker. you are way past arguing about principles and your perceived rights. you lose your firearm , the right to carry it , your house to pay for the litigation to keep you free and probably your wife due to no house and stubbornness. there are hills to die on but this ain't it.
 
The only business I've noticed here with the no CC sign is the Taco Bell/KFC joint. I've only gone there a couple times, carrying obviously, and never had a problem, the sign looks like it's been there 50 years, and only on the side door and not on the main door. I doubt anyone really cares, they interact with customers no more than what is absolutely necessary and if it ever became an issue I think I could get through my remaining years without KFC. I will not eat Toxic Hell for any reason. I generally choose not to do business with places that flaunt a liberal mindset, I tend to try and blend in anyway, no MAGA hats, bumper stickers, and try and be pleasant to everyone etc, so I tend not to gain attention from the Karens. Also, Colorado just passed some sort of safe storage law where a gun needs to be in a locked case or compartment and there are penalties for the the guy who has a gun stolen from their car. I have a buddy who went on a hike with his daughter and noticed a no guns sign at the trailhead. Trying to do the right thing, he locked his gun in the glove box. His 1911 was stolen from his truck. I figure just carrying is a lesser risk than unholstering in a parking lot and leaving your gun in the car.

I think Colorado's stance is that it is private property and if the owner chooses not to allow CC on their property they can do so. Not sure what the penalties are, if any.

We went to a hot wing place in New Mexico and after we sat down I saw the back of a no CC sign in the window. I'm told that NM requires that if the place serves alcohol.
 
Every time someone interferes with my constitutional rights they will face resistance.
i hear the echo of patrick henry. but we have dodged the bullet in 2024. thankfully our justice dept. is on the mend. we are going from enemy of the FBI, IRS, ATF, dept of education and many more weaponized taxpayer funded institutions to regular citizen. trump is leveling the field, we can breath, we can hope. the constitution is being revived and not rewritten. jeepnik is right. we must be reasonable which democrats are not capable of. we must think how our actions may jeopardize our progress to regain that which has been taken. not rolling over but not giving a retreating enemy ammunition we must think how our actions affect all of us.

Sad to say a land owner's wishes trump others rights when it comes to entering their property. All signs should be obeyed. Such as no trespassing, no hunting or fishing, no soliciting, no cussing, no alcohol , no smoking, no pets, etc..

We must remember at that point we are guest and at their whim they get to make the rules, just as we do on our private property. And if guest do not like the rules they are always free to leave and not come back unless we are willing to obey the owner's wishes.

That is to say that we as guest have privileges afforded to use by the owner not rights. If the owner says be quiet when one wishes to talk then they need to leave the property before saying much of anything. A polite goodbye would suffice. Save any speeches for public property or on their own personal property. Our perhaps go to a friend's house that is gracious enough to allow one to rant.

The idea is one should respect other as they would have others respect them. And that is definitely one thing that this country seems to be loosing day by day. To many people exalt themselves above what they should.

Yeah, sure. In your home, ok. Shopping centers? Not so much, I'll leave if they say to but I'm ignoring the little signs that say "no weapon" in ten point type.
 
So you don't go to the mall?
Rarely, and then I respect their rules. I worked at all sorts of facilities, prisons, hospitals, pharmaceutical plants, think tanks, military bases, NASA sites, etc. None of these allowed weapons. Oh, I suppose my tools could be considered "weapons" but it would have been pretty hard to accomplish anything without them. Does this mean I was completely unarmed the entire day? No. Other arrangements were made to secure firearms while on site.
 
there's the crux of this debate... Lester Maddox of Georgia said blacks could not come into his restaurant..... was not that his 'right'?... There is a difference between a private residence and a place that allows the public in... building codes have a term for it. A commercial building has to meet certain standards for the safety of the people coming into it.... so the owner is limited in his or her 'rights'.
