Do you still conceal carry into posted "No Carry" businesses?

Seems to be more circumstantial evidence that the "training" provided in government-mandated concealed carry permission slip classes is hardly adequate to keep gun owners/carriers from shooting themselves in the foot, as it were. And yet, some gun owners/carriers see such classes as providing safety and security for wider society. Cognitive dissonance abounds.

True, or he had one of the ways to waiv the class entierly, like a DD214.

Anyway just thought I'd leave this here:

Personally I agree that one in general should follow the businesses rules and help fight against its policies if they feel it is wrong. With that said though (and I know this is a complete contradiction) in the current state of this country I think it foolish to go into such areas unprotected but do so knowing you may face the consequences for your actions.

Tennessee’s Senate Bill 1736 states that if any handgun permit holder is wounded, killed, or incurs financial loss, expense, property or any other kind of compensable loss on a site posted to restrict firearms, the person can sue the individual or entity that created the gun free zone.

My own belief is similar to Tennessee's bill above in that if a business restricts your rights to protection then they must be responsible for it. Win or lose if victims and/or there family start suing these businesses for there negligent protection I think this would affect change.

Wrong!!! How many times do I have to correct this? This is becoming an urban myth. Tennessee’s Senate Bill 1736 as enacted states no such thing:

SECTION 1. Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 39, Chapter 17, Part 13, is amended by

adding the following as a new section:

(a) A person, business, or other entity that owns, controls, or manages property and has the authority to prohibit weapons on that property by posting, pursuant to § 39-17-1359, shall be immune from civil liability with respect to any claim based on such person's, business's, or other entity's failure to adopt a policy that prohibits weapons on the property by posting pursuant to § 39-17-1359.

(b) Immunity under this subsection (a) does not apply to a person, business, or other entity whose conduct or failure to act is the result of gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct.

SECTION 2. This act shall take effect July 1, 2016, the public welfare requiring it.

The original intent of the law was to make any person who posts their property as a gun-free zone liable for the safety of any handgun carry permit holder while the permit holder is on the posted premises as well as while during their travel to and from the premises and the location where the permit holder’s firearm is stored. However, like with so many other bills in the TN legislature, it was changed at the last minute.

The enacted law provides immunity from civil liability to a person, business, or other entity that owns, controls, or manages property and has the authority to prohibit weapons on that property by positing, with respect to any claim based on the person's, business's, or other entity's failure to adopt such a policy. Big difference!

Unfortunately, news outlets and gun blogs, such as Breitbart and Bearing Arms, used the text of the original bill when reporting on its passage and not the text of the actual passed bill. These articles had to be corrected, but unfortunately only after many already read the original article and got the completely wrong message.

Always verify what you are reading on the Internet, especially when it comes to the law and would directly impact you.

Financial adviser Dave Ramsey uses a technique on his radio show which I think can apply here. The technique is to reverce the situation. For example, if a person wanted to delay paying a car off so that they would have extra money in the bank, Dave would ask them 'If the car were paid off right now, would you give the title to a bank for a loan just so you could have extra money in your bank account?'

So as it pertains to businesses, would any parent be willing to let their child be killed in a gun free zone if it meant the parent would be paid a settlment by the property owner?

I say no.

Let the buisnesses post their silly signs. I'll do what I need to do.
 
How do you know? Have you asked everyone? I don't care that you don't. How about posting something productive? Oh, right, I now remember what your contribution to this forum is. Agitation and false information.
See? Nobody cares.

Thank you for so quickly proving the point I made in the very post you quoted. No contribution whatsoever.

You are one of the reasons why this forum sucks by the way. I am still waiting on your answer to my question in the other thread pointing out where I was wrong:

And he's wrong on top of it. Mailing a firearm is no more complicated than mailing a Christmas presant.

Please point out where I was wrong. Blues already pointed out where you are wrong.

Mailing != shipping. Christmas cards don't involve an FFL, an ATF 4473, a background check, a transfer fee and the need to be a resident in the state you are taking possession of it.

Go check out post 684 and then explain why you want this tangent.

Even if the law were offering liability grounds for a lawsuit, it doesn't matter, no one cares.

I was the bigger person and walked away from that other thread. There's more than one postal service in this country, you're just going to have to come to terms with that on your own. It's petty of you to try and bring your tangents from other threads into this one.

You're what's wrong with this forum.

I care too bofh.

Once again, stringer and bofh are right on all accounts, shells wrong.

You know he won't answer you bofh, he cried about me saying he was wrong too. I'd say leave him to his own miserable life.

My post in this thread was simply correcting another post in terms of what the law is. That's all. I wasn't arguing about if this law makes any sense whatsoever. You seem to believe so, however.

As for the other thread, you are still wrong and I am still right. You have not made any argument why I was wrong. I have posted the details about the complexities of shipping a handgun to yourself across states with a commercial carrier, which is not easier than flying with it or mailing a Christmas present. None of these activities involve an FFL. Also, there is only one postal service. The person who couldn't explain his post ran away from that thread.

As I said, you are one of the reasons why this forum sucks.

Fact is you can just mail a firearm. No amount of pouting from you is ever going to change that.
 
Every single mass shooting in the US exept 2, from 1950 to present, occured in a gun-free zone. How many more people need to die at the feet of "property rights" before we put an end to the public hazard?

Do I carry past signs? Damn right I do, that's where I'm most likely to need it.

You're as bad as Billary when it comes to dancing around a topic and saying anything useful. You're greatest achievement in this forum is, where others haven't, you can say you did, and you are proud of that.

First rule to winning a gun fight is to not be there when the gun fight starts so why would anyone intentionally go where they are most likely to need their gun? Are you required by law to go there or do you disrespect private property rights of other folks because going somewhere else is just inconvenient for you?

An opinion not directed at any specific individual(s)......

I tend to believe some folks who sanctimoniously brag about disrespecting private property rights by... sneaking.... their guns into private property businesses with no guns rules secretly hope to have the opportunity to heroically whip out their super secret Ninja element of surprise and save the day from an active shooter to the applause and accolades of those now grateful poor unfortunates the dastardly business owner demanded be unarmed.
