While I hope it doesn't happen, there are those in the House and Senate who will demand it at least be considered. I fully expect Rep.Carolyn McCarthy to hold a press conference touting 'if my bill had been passed this wouldn't have happened' drivel.

She is not up for relection and can beat her drum loudly, and she WILL get support for it from the radical left.

The Omaha mall has posted signs requiring citizens to enter unarmed,

I was wondering about that. Some malls and stores in Virginia and West Virginia required patrons to compromise their ability to defend themselves. I do not frequent these places.

When a mall or any other public business bans legal concealed carry, I think they assume the total and absolute responsibility of ensuring their customers safety. The mall company should be made to pay millions in damages to the victims.

If this were the case now, insurance companies would not allow their clients to ban legal concealed carry.

And Mitt wants to be POTUS. He pandered to get elected in Mass, and now he panders to get elected by the country.

I am not a one-issue voter, but 2nd Amendment issues are at the top of the list.

If they don't understand the Constitution or the Bill of Rights, they don't understand America, and deserve nothing but contempt.

Hopefully, some sleazy lawyer will crawl out from under a rock and sue the s**t out of the mall for those signs.

The mall company should be made to pay millions in damages to the victims.

I agree ... that would require the victims or estates thereof to sue the mall. I would love to be a juror in such a case.

"The Omaha mall has posted signs requiring citizens to enter unarmed,"

"I do not frequent these places."

Simple choice to make, at least when we are not requred to enter.

Shop like a rat in a cage or don't shop there.

I’m glad that sort of thing doesn’t exist in GA CCW law.

Ga's ccw laws are a little better, but they're still no great shakes either.

There's a mighty long list of places where carry is verboten, like any restauraunt that happens to sell demon alky-hol or, of course, the catchall "public gatherings".

This kind on nonsense needs to be remedied pronto. Laws that turn good people into criminals are never the answer. Dealing with criminals and the insane in a responsible manner is what will turn the tide.

Mitt is certainly NOT the most pro-Second Amendment Republican,,,,

but Rudy most certainly IS the most militant GUN-GRABBER among the candidates.

“The Omaha mall has posted signs requiring citizens to enter unarmed”

That creates a guaranteed unarmed-victim zone.

I hope the mall owners are sued for every dollar they are worth.

Nice post, ps.
Per the MSM, the Dhims and the inner party, the American public (taxpaying,
law-abiding) cannot be trusted with firearms, regardless of the 2nd Amendment.
The arrogance of the ruling class knows no bounds.

The definition of “assault rifle” is slipping. I had never thought of an SKS as an “assault rifle” even under the bogus definition used by the media today.

I suppose that an “assault rifle” is any rifle that someone wants to ban.

My employer has a sign on the front door that "concealed weapons are not permitted in this facility." I thought, (but didn't say) "How are you going to know they have them if they're concealed." Stupid.

Simply put, i will not patronize an establishment if I have to disarm to do it. Whatever I need that they may have I can get elsewhere.

Using the banks drive-up window while armed rather than disarm to go inside is one instance.

“I suppose that an “assault rifle” is any rifle that someone wants to ban.”

Pretty much, I remember the first time I saw a 9mm pistol described as an “assault pistol”.

I have seen these signs. Concealed means concealed. Unless they have a metal detector set to figure out if my weapon is setting it off or my car keys, I tend to ignore the sign.
