WTF? why do these places feel safer thinking that the good guys who have a permit leave their gun in the car, while criminals walk right in.
Shame on these medical centers.

Some people and organizations simply think that guns are icky and they don't want them around.

They really don't trust the good guys with them either. Sheep think.

Yeah, It's completely stupid.

Guess I'm  criminal then. I just ignore them unless its a building that is illegal to carry in. Even that is sometimes left up to my discretion. After all, concealed means CONCEALED!

A lot more signs went up at Renown facilities and there is now quite a bit more visible uniformed security (unarmed) since the shooting at a Renown medical office two years ago:

Of course, all that those signs accomplish is an attempt to keep visitors and workers who respect those signs from carrying in Renown facilities.  Criminals aren't going to care and most people I know who carry concealed are probably not going to worry about the signs anyway.

Just a PC knee jerk response to a tragic event.

The building I work in has a Renown office in one of the suites. They put a sign up on the front after the shooting. But...it's just a sign.

What do you expect from SEIU commies?

Pretty standard for medical facilities even before everyone was talking about mass shootings.

Actually they have armed security at all the entrances.  It is a good thing.

When did that happen? Don't think I've ever seen armed security at renown but I haven't been in a while.

I've only seen it at the emergency room entrance.
