The only ones I respect so far are Toys R US when we take the grand kids there, the VA Vets Center I go to for my group sessions and the VA Hospitals and clinics. I think that I have carried in most other places since I would rather be asked to leave than get shot. I do not go to airports or other federal buildings.

Where do hospitals come in at on the "severity" list? Just like any other private business? Or more along the lines of schools, etc? Friend of mine works in various hospitals. Ranging from nursing homes, to regular hospitals, to VA hospitals, to hospitals on base.

It would be impossible for me to care less about a gun-buster sign on a business. I may make a note of it and not frequent that establishment in the future, but I carry concealed for a reason.

I saw a gunbusters sign on a receptionist's desk and I wanted to put my gun down and ask "I saw your sign, do I check this in here and do y'all keep'em in a safe?"

So, if you buy a gun from said store, as soon as you take possession of the weapon are you in violation of the law? That is just a fool for a store owner.

...and the sign must be in a conspicuous location. So if a business like Chuck-e-chease posts the sign behind a door, it is not worth the paper it is printed on.
A business that posts such a sign is asking to be robed, and I am willing to sit by and let them get robed, until I'm in danger

Also in Colorado and the sign tells me I will not do business with them
