Reply #6: Actually, here in Virgina, and North Carolina

[virginia mountainman]

the two states I have had the most experience with CCW...

Very, VERY, few malls, are posted against CCW.. I can only think of 3 in two states right off hand, and they are about 150 miles apart, my wife, being a avid shopper knows all the malls.

Even fewer Restaurants are...

Their are only a few "gun free zones" and they are by statute, like County Schools, Post offices, and Court Houses are the big ones.

In my local area I can think of 3 Small Cities close by, each with Populations of about 10,000.

I can only think of ONE, Privately owned business, with a "No Guns" sign, on a store, or restaurant (its on a restaurant).

Heck, now, about 50% of the Banks, have removed their "No Guns" signs! None of the local banks are posted against CCW, one is posted against Open Carry.

I remember when CCW came to VA, several stores did post signs, against it, but, pressure from us, gun owners "Corrected the vast majority of them"

EDIT, Sorry for the tone in my last post, I totaly misread it somehow
