VACPS has teamed up with gunfreespaces.org to provide business owners in Virginia with tools to secure their establishments and identify them as being gun-free. [More]
"This doesn't mean that you're questioning gun carriers' rights. It only means that you don't want guns around your customers and are asserting your private property rights in order to provide a safe environment."
" . . . secure their establishments and identify them as gun-free." " . . . don't want guns around . . . provide a safe environment." Huh! Sounds oxymoronic, er, moronic! Some people simply will NEVER get it!
Sounds like a very useful "service" to me. I appreciate when businesses and other private property owners clearly identify their places as gun free zones. That way I know not to bother going anywhere near them or giving them any of my money.
The fact that they are doing the opposite of providing a "safe environment" is their problem, and that of anyone who enters KNOWING they are prohibited from defending themselves.
Why patronize a business that does not welcome me and does not want my business? I will spend my money elsewhere. Let that business owner enjoy his own rights - alone.
Those "No Guns" signs are like an "Irish Curse":
“May those who love us love us. And those that don't love us, May God turn their hearts. And if He doesn't turn their hearts, May he turn their ankles, So we'll know them by their limping.”

ReplyDeleteWonder if they have a view on HIV?
