CO - Gun Bill Puts Onus on Businesses That Restrict Carry

Post by JJVP »

The latest gun bill from Republican lawmakers would require business owners to allow concealed-carry permit holders to pack heat or else provide one security officer for every 50 customers and face increased liability.

I'm all for private property rights and being able to do what I want with my own property, just ask my HOA association. However, I kind of like this idea. When a business opens their doors to the public for business and wants them to enter so they can exchange goods or services for the customers money, why should their rights trump the customer's without replacing the security that being able to carry provides?

Not 100% definite on this but it is interesting for discussion.
