I wish those signs meant JITB assumed the responsibility for their patrons safety...

Even then, there are lawyers out there that could successfully argue that “assumed responsibility” for your safety could be defended against, if that statement (declaration, even in writing) is posted where ALL patrons can see and understand...Especially if the sign fails to do its intended job...

Whatever that could be...

Just remember, corporate policy is not state law in most cases, unless the law specifically allows businesses to post a “no guns” sign in their establishments...

Texas has a provision in the law that if a business or entity wishes to post a sign, it has to meet a “state” required size, contrast, visibility (posting location) requirement for it to be legally binding...And even in some cases even that has been argued against in court...

I do not know of any other states that have similar legal requirements...I stand to be corrected though...

Most people I know tend to just let their dollars be spent elsewhere than prop up a business that doesn’t understand the basic purpose of your right to keep and bear arms...

I, and many other could go on and on, but the result would be the same...IF JITB, and other businesses refuse to respect your rights, then I’d just step away and go somewhere else...

The blood will be on their hands, not yours...
