“No firearms” signs this weekend for NRA convention

[Sigblitz]

But, Selfpreservation already told us signs don't have the force of law in Indiana (or is it Marion County?) and he is not a lawyer. So we should believe him, right? Because you are a lawyer and know nothing of the law... But then the law doesn't mater because the prosecutor is god? But isn't the prosecutor a lawyer?

I'm confused. HELP!

None of that matters. Watch the spinning wheel.

I'm not surprised. It seems to me that many of the businesses did not want to get sucked into the debate.

Maybe some of them just want to quietly serve their customers and make profit, without being drawn into the social debate?

ETA: Or, maybe some of them are smart enough to know not to respond off the cuff when a possibly agenda-driven media representative calls?

Actually it said quite a bit, paraphrased:

we we called a bunch of restaurants and hotels to stir up s**t and no one wanted to play our game.

The restaurants and hotels by their silence said they did not want to be drug into this debate so don't tell the anti's we want NRA attendees money...

A lot of the restaurants that I have called are VERY much on our side. Hotels too.

Sounds like this comes down to “knowingly” entering after reading and comprehending these signs.

Just don’t read signs. And if you’re asked to leave.....leave.

Selfpreservation, is that you?

Or, if the business doesn't want your money, don't give them your money.

As a doctor I prescribe 3 days of looking at guns at NRAAM.

Substitute NRA for the Deltas and guns for women... Why do Moms hate America?

As a doctor I prescribe 3 days of looking at guns at NRAAM.

Otter: Point of parliamentary procedure!
Hoover: Don't screw around, they're serious this time!
Otter: Take it easy, I'm pre-law.
Boon: I thought you were pre-med.
Otter: What's the difference?
Otter: Ladies and gentlemen, I'll be brief. The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules, or took a few liberties with our female party guests - we did. [winks at Dean Wormer]But you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few, sick twisted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg - isn't this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but I for one am not going to stand here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America. Gentlemen!

If this signage thing is enforceable, would it not also be possible to "Deny Entry" to blacks, women, redheads, longhairs, Muslims, Hispanics, fat guys, dopeheads, and whom ever else you don't like? This signage sure seems like discrimination to a select group of law abiding citizens without cause. Of course I realize that we are not a protected class, but discrimination is discrimination.

You answered your own question.

You need a Heart of Atlanta 2.0 but for gun owners.

Except for 42 U.S.C. 2000a(a).

It's kinda like saying that people are allowed to go 200mph on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, so on principle, people should be able to go that fast on 16th Street...which they can, except there's a law that you can't.

...and they could lawfully exclude redheads, longhairs, fat guys, dopeheads....because there's not a law.

I listened to the gun guy yesterday. He said, I think Bloomberg, picked this group up. They started as a Facebook group million mom something, but they were over 900,000 moms short so they had to change their name.
Now they have backing. Let your dollars speak about how you like to be arrested on the spot because someone hung a sign. I'd like to see a thread of businesses that are supporting it.

 

[2A_Tom]

Of all the Restaurants that I called, only two said they had been approached by Demanding Mommies and they both said no.

None of the ones that are listed as NO GO gave an indication that they were doing it for purely anti gun purposed.

Capitol grill said they did not want open carry because they did not want their regular customers disturbed.

Nada and Yard house said it is because they serve liquor.

Several including Weber Grill and Mikado were over the top in support of us.

Every call to a restaurant that is in a hotel went to the front desk and Every hotel said they welcome us.
