Ok, I understand these places don't want guns, even if you have the appropriate license. But THINK for a minute, you put a sign up like that and what do folks conclude: "Hey what kind of place is this? What goes on here that we should be worried about?"
Stupid clowns. Probably moved to OH from KY or WV.

'No Guns Allowed' Signs Coming Down in Ohio
1:02 pm PST, 10 June 2004

Some Ohio businesses that had posted "No guns allowed" signs are removing them, largely because there have been no problems with concealed weapons holders at similar businesses in other states.

So far, reports Ohioans For Concealed Carry, two national chains, Southwest Ohio Kroger stores and Perkins Family Restaurants, had "begun removing discriminatory signs banning concealed handgun license-holders from their stores.

Marc Teaberry, the executive vice president of Perkins Family Restaurants, announced the change in a letter, noting the chain had "numerous locations in Pennsylvania, which has always had a concealed-weapon law, and have never had any problems."

He went on to say the chain had received "bad advise" from attorneys, which led to the posting of the signs in the first place.

The Ohio gun group also said it also had received reports that Kroger stores in the Cincinnati Division (which includes greater Dayton) had begun removing their "no guns allowed" signs, according to CNSNews.com.

"It is not yet known if this action is in any way related to the assault and robbery of a 70-year-old Kroger customer outside a posted store on May 23," Ohioans For Concealed Carry said in a press release.

Gun rights groups were pleased by the decision.

"Ohioans already are being forced to learn that businesses on the Do Not Patronize While Armed list are dangerous places to be," said Chad Baus, OFCC spokesman. "Already, customers and employees at 10 retail stores and banks on the list have experienced violent criminal encounters. And that's just the ones we know about."
