I was sitting there waiting to get blood work done and I happened to notice this sign on the door. I could see that it had a silhouette of a revolver inside a circle with a slash...

On my way out, I read the notice that had some words saying it was against their rules to bring a gun on their premises.

I Googled this and it's apparently on LabCorp doors in many states. Seems kinda unnecessary in NJ since we can't legally carry (most of us, anyway)and if your carrying illegally I don't think this sign would have much affect.

I'm sure it's a corporate policy. I just don't recall seeing a notice like this on any business in my area.

Most people in red states that have carry licenses routinely ignore these asinine signs. The most they can do is ask you to leave. There's no criminal penalty for it in most places although I'm sure you can find some place that has a penalty on the books.

I used to ignore them all the time in Colorado

Like anyone ever follows signs....

Thank you for notifying me of this. I will be sure to never step foot in, utilize or otherwise patronize a LabCorp facility.

If I had a store I would put "Concealed and Open Gun Carrying Zone - All patrons and employees may be armed"

 

Would be much more effective in preventing crime.

Here you go. From a bank in Texas...

 

SWEET

I notice those signs quite a bit when I travel down south.

Nice, but why is the sign facing the inside?

It's facing out, you're seeing the reflection of the road,

 

That's the second time I've seen that sign and the second time that it's chapped my a** that they misspelled "inalienable." There is no such thing as an "unaliienable" [sic] right. But, I like the message.

discussion of inalienable vs unalienable

 

The Declaration if Independence talks about unalienable rights.

 

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

That write-up was tough to follow.

 

Yes, the Declaration of Independence uses the word "unailienable." And it may have been the word for that era. But, even according to that website's citation to Black's Law Dictionary (6th ed.), "unailienable" is that which cannot be sold or transferred. Which would be like having an interest in a piece of land which is unalienable. My copy of Black's Law Dictionary (8th ed.) says "see inalienable" for its entry of "unailienable." Black's also has no entry for "unailienable right," but it does have an entry for "inalienable right." By 1884, "unailienable right" in the Declaration of Independence had been understood (by the US Supreme Court) to mean "inalienable right."

 

Modernly, if one is going to use the word "unailienable," they should probably spell it correctly to avoid people assuming they just misspelled inalienable.

Only place I've seen around here with a "no guns" sign is a cop bar in Elizabeth right on Frelinghuysen. I'm sure they disarm before going in

I would argue that I thought they meant no-revolvers, and I only carry an auto-loader.

The gym that I use to go, Lifetime Firness, in Florham Park has an announce on the door banning guns from the place...

I was at Labcorp a few weeks ago and I noticed that tiny little sign - on the way out. I was carrying of course. And I would have ignored the sign had I seen it on the way in. I choose to conceal whenever I go to medical facilities so it was not an issue. One of the only types of places in PA I routinely choose to conceal. Can't think of another one, actually.

That's what I did when I was in AZ.
