[QUOTE="Werewolf, post: 1503310, member: 239"] The issue noted above is the one part of gun buster signs that I have never been able to resolve. Conflicted describes my stand. On the one hand a property owner should have the right to determine - freely and without restriction - who can and cannot come on his property. There is a difference, for sure, between property meant as a residence and property used as a business but when push comes to shove the difference is irrelevant as both are privately owned. BUT! And this is a big but the supreme court has ruled many times that a business cannot refuse its services to customers based simply on race, creed, religion, sex etc. Can't be done. All of those are ensconsed within various amendments to the constitution. YET! The 2nd amendment, you know, the one right after the 1st and put in that order for a reason is not considered a civil right for some reason and it is OK for a private business owner to refuse entry to someone exercising that civil right. Some will say you can't change your skin color but you can remove the gun. Kind'a like the arguments about the differences between residential and business property; ultimately irrelevant. Discrimiantion is discrimination when it comes to rights. Either a civil right is a civil right or it isn't. There doesn't really seem to be a middle ground in that regard. Conundrum. I don't get it. Why is one form of discrimination legal and culturally accepted while the other is not? Someone help me understand. [/QUOTE]
