Should PC 30.06 Remain Available to ALL Private Businesses?

Yes, private property rights always trump those of people entering.

No, not if the property offers unfettered (no controlled entry points, no security checks) access to the public at large.

38%
Depends, whether it is a business selling "necessary" (food, pharmaceuticals) goods or one selling elective or luxury items.

This has been a great discussion and I thank everyone who shared their points of view. There was one response that kind of summed it up for me. If the business owner wants to tell me to get out because of, say, my mustache then okay. Where I have a problem is that a business open to all sorts of "public" can preemptively prevent my entrance/criminalize my entrance by posting a sign against an otherwise legal (as well as out of sight) article of clothing. Tell me to leave for whatever reason, it's your property. But they shouldn't be able to turn me into a criminal by my simply entering the location.
