I very much agree. Once upon a time somebody said, "Hey, we have a lot of people jammed in here. Suppose somebody fired a gun in here? A bunch of people could be hurt. We should put up a sign." But in real life, while law-abiding armed citizens carry all over the place without accidentally firing off their weapons and killing people , we have whack jobs saying, "Hey, there's a lot of people jammed in that place down the street/where my ex works/that fired me/that raised my taxes/etc. Suppose I fired my gun in there? A bunch of people could be hurt. Perfect!"

However, if a sign were posted that read "We actively encourage and invite law abiding holders of CCW's to shop here."...
THAT would be cool.
