Mrs. Peel 7,157 Posted July 13, 2022 Honestly? I love a good afternoon of shopping. But I would not want to shop in a mall that was promoting/advertising the vulnerability of its shoppers. We have plenty of evidence by this point of mass shooters passing by hard targets and driving a little further down the road for a "soft target". So, why would I want to spend my time in a soft target? This is just dumb. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJRulz 82 Posted July 13, 2022 Paramus Park has one also but that has been up for months now. Paramus Park and Willowbrook are owned/managed by the same company: Brookfield Properties. They are Canadian.... The bought the company that owned both malls a few years back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaveR 42 Posted July 13, 2022 8 minutes ago, YankeeSC said: I read these as "we don't want your business" signs. Where I'm at in FL, the only store I can think of is Sprouts. Guess who does not get my grocery monies? The botanical garden also has a sign that gets ignored. A park where they have pickleball championships has a sign or prohibited items as well, it just shows a gun, and you can see where they removed the circle and line through it. Once upon a time you could not carry in a park, but that was corrected. Here most no guns signs are I don't want your business signs. Unless it is a prohibited location, a sign is just a suggestion, not a violation of law. At most you will be asked to leave if found out. If you don't you risk trespassing. Unfortunately NJ will probably do the same thing as NY, making it illegal to carry just about anywhere unless you are given permission to do so by the owner. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
124gr9mm 859 Posted July 13, 2022 That sign has been up at Willowbrook for a while. My wife mentioned it after she went there for dinner with some friends from work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's great in states where if someone notices, you get told to leave and at worst a misdemeanortrasspassing charge. NJ is making it a major felony. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YankeeSC 1,204 Posted July 13, 2022 Oddly enough, here in SC they have legal backing, but fortunately you don't see very many of them. Whole Foods comes to mind plus a few random places. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RadioGunner 218 Posted July 13, 2022 Willowhood and some of these other malls already had it. It’s corporate policy. Spend your money at a small business instead. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sign says firearm detecting dogs, I've heard that gangbangers frequent there. Dogs must not be doing there jobs or they leave them in their cars Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm in the clear then, as long as they don't know the smell of G96. It would be fun to mess with them though, a little Hoppe's on the wrists or fondle a bucket of spent brass before heading there. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJ_Dude 198 Posted July 14, 2022 We know that criminals do not read signs so I have this question, CC is legal, and a business forbids CC, God forbid, something happens, can we sue the business for not allowing us to defend ourselves? I totally agree with the 'We don't want your business' argument but still. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
