But then again there are some that don't mind concealed carry but don't want open carry. So I guess that's why they have to have two signs. So much for my common sense theory. How about they put both signs on one piece of paper with a perforated line in the middle, and you can cut off the part you don't want.

I believe most businesses don't care about guns as long as it doesn't negatively impact their business. They don't care about concealed carry unless it becomes an issue. Out of sight, out of mind. Starbucks sells coffee. Gun owner, non-gun owner, Lexus driver, Chevy driver, mom, dad, grandparent, black, white.....they don't care. After foolish activism by over zealous gun owners OCing long guns, they received a lot of attention NOT related to selling coffee. They issued a statement that requested guns not be carried in their stores. They did NOT make it a legal requirement to not carry, especially concealed. I predict that some overzealous types will make an issue out of denial of open carry in places like Starbucks and you will see 30.07 signs appear. I predict minimal increase in 30.06 signage because CC doesn't alarm customers and impact business in a negative fashion. Again, out of sight, out of mind. I think dual signage is brilliant.
