” His property, his rules, his rights.”

I also agree with you about private property. However, commercial businesses are required to accept all customers nowadays, and I don’t see why I should be rejected just because I have a permit to carry.

I’m not so clear about the liability of the property owner for acts out of his control though.

I do understand your point, but I also disagree that private businesses should have to allow ANYthing that they don't want. I don't think they should be sued into oblivion for not baking gay cookies, and I don't think they should be coerced into allowing guns on their property if that is what they choose.

These aren't government buildings or services (in which case there should be NO provision to allow them to ban firearms). The way I see it, you either believe in private property rights, or you don't. Trying to play the middle makes us no better than those on the other side.
