After reading your comment TAM and rereading his comment, I can see I may have misinterpreted the comment.

Carry concealed and there's ZERO violation.
Carry open and there's violation only if you fail to leave after having been given proper notice.

I wouldn't be happy if the law allowed them to put up a sign with such miniscule letters that one would need a magnifying glass to read.

Re: Dispelling a myth about "no guns allowed" signs
They can do that and some may comply. However, it does not constitute trespass if someone with a LTC ignores it. It does apply to someone without a license though.K.Mooneyham wrote:Tell me to knock it off if I'm off-base on this one, but maybe someone wants to slap a "gunbuster" sticker on their door to keep guns out instead of posting the proper signage per the law?

They would then have to give verbal notice or written notice with the same language as what is require for the sign for effective notice to be given.

Think what you want but you are wrong in your presumptions about people on this forum and business owners that don't post compliant signs.

Re: Dispelling a myth about "no guns allowed" signs
Your comment makes it appear you believe a no guns allowed sign and verbal notice are one and the same. That's not correct. There is no sign needed to give verbal notice. A noncompliant no guns sign does not provide effective notice to someone with a LTC.
You have not busted a myth.
