    BTW, even with a permit you can NOT go into any place that clearly says they don't want you to carry firearms into. For example, some malls and department stores have that sign on their front door...kinda like no shoes, no shirt, no service....

    Jaime, If I read right.. Even if is a private business and it has the sign "NO FIREARMS" that dont mean nothing.. you can still go in, if they tell you to leave, you can leave... And if you refuse, they will call the cops and you will probably go to jail but will not loose your permit...

    True, but some places are anal about that.

    I remember a long time ago, I was in Malibu Grand Prix. Some little pencil neck saw mine while I was playing a game, I guess moving let my shirt ride up enough for him to see the holster, and he went all AWOL on me. Started telling me that only police were allowed to carry guns.... . He even went and got his "manager" who also was all stupid. I showed them my permit and they called Gwinnett Co. When they showed up, they just laughed and told me to "have a good day". This was before there was Gwinnett PD up there all the time.

    That was the only time anyone ever went ape shit with me.

    we had this happen when i worked at malibu in feb... some guys were fighting near the grand prix track.. his gun fell out the holster and they went AWALL ON HIS ASS.. i mean everyone.. even my manager.. i was like oh shit.. lol.. but turns out he was a licensed body guard with a permit to carry a fire arm.. my thing is when i was looking into the body guard thing i only thought you could carry with that license when your actually protecting someone.. not at an amusement park playing games on your days off...CCW exsist in columbia sc... but in columbia Gun laws are only enforced when something is wrong IE traffic stop when you look suspicious or fit the description.. other then that most gun laws are looked over.. then again Columbia = Hicksville ya dig

    Here is the scoop on stores with NO GUNS ALLOWED signs:

    There is an "official" sign that store owners can put up that are binding by law. The sign usually has to be 8"x8" with a white background and a black handgun with the red circle/slash over the gun. This sign has to be posted in plain view. Later, QD.

    "The Act also provides the exclusive means by which private establishments may prohibit firearms on their premises. A “private establishment” is any building or structure (or portion thereof) that is owned, leased, controlled, or operated by a nongovernmental entity for a nongovernmental purpose. This likely includes most private businesses so long as they have no governmental ownership, control or purpose.

    Private establishments may prohibit a permit holder and others from bringing firearms onto their premises by making a reasonable request that no one bring firearms into the establishment and, having done so, may order a violator to leave. A private establishment has made a “reasonable request” only if it has done all of the following:

    1.
    Posted a sign at every entrance to the establishment containing the following language:
    [IDENTITY OF OPERATOR] BANS GUNS IN THESE PREMISES]
    2. The sign must be readily visible and within four feet laterally of each entrance with the bottom of the sign at a height of four to six feet above the floor.
    3. The lettering of the sign must be in black arial typeface at least 1½ inches in height against a bright contrasting background that is at least 187 square inches in area.
    4. The requester or its agent must have personally informed the person of the posted request and demanded compliance.

    A person who fails to leave after a “reasonable request” is guilty of a petty misdemeanor and subject to a fine not to exceed $25 for a first offense but may not be required to forfeit his/her firearm."

    Thats pretty much same thing I said......

    What this means is this : straight from Packing.org

    A "No Firearms" sign on a private business does not mean anything. If your firearm is noticed, they simply ask you to leave. If the police arrive and you still refuse to leave you can be charged with criminal trespass. You keep your permit even if convicted.
