I have been running across this statement over the past few years on various firearms boards "Maybe their insurance company requires them to post gun buster signs". Or something to that effect. Over the past few months I have talked to several insurance companies (under the guise of shopping for insurance for my business) and I have YET to be told anything of the sort. I have asked them directly about it and they all have said it is not in any of their policies to give breaks for people posting these signs nor is it any sort of requirement.
Corporations that are posting these signs are doing so for their OWN reasons. Be it fear of firearms carriers or whatever. They don't seem to get the point that the people they are hurting is their OWN businesses. Legal firearm carriers simply don't go there and they lose business. Bad guys see the signs with sheer delight as they know that the businesses are unarmed! They sure don't see the sign and think to themselves "well crap I can't go in there with my illegal firearm because that sign says it's illegal"
Simply put, it's NOT the insurance companies. It's the business owners themselves.
