"So are you cool with people coming onto your property and doing whatever they want against your wishes?"
When you work with the public public domain this is to be expected. This is comparing apples to oranges, of course private homes can expect compliance.
Does putting an open for business sign on a building magically change its ownership?

Private property is private property, whether the owner lives in it, does business out of it, or raises ring-tailed lemurs in it. At least morally and ethically that's the way it should be.
It’s Sprouts, a hippy, dippy organic, whole food grocery store. What did you expect?
Exactly. I'm pretty sure the average Sprouts, Whole Foods, etc. customer isn't carrying anyway, so it's really a non-issue for the most part. I personally would never shop there, but it's their property and if they don't want firearms on the premises, that's up to them.
Just as someone could carry heroin onto your property and use it there without your knowledge.
Point is do you respect property rights or not?
They are doing something ILLEGAL on your property. Not a good analogy at all. Legally carrying a concealed firearm is legal in my state with a permit. Therefore you are not putting the property owner at risk of anything.
Admit it. You just don't like people's right to legally carry a concealed firearm. You have an irrational fear of legally owned guns.
In terms of "What about defending yourself in case of a store robbery or shooting?", depending on where you are at in the store, you might be able to improvise with a store product. For example, a bra could be used to strangle the attacker if the odds are in your favor. Yes, that is not very practical and not very likely but it could happen in very rare situations. Assuming that you do save the damage, whether or not you face penalties for damaging a product before you buy it is up is at the store's discretion. Same thing goes for you possibly getting arrested for any possible store violations.

No I’m a gun owner myself.
Property rights trump that. If you don’t believe in property rights go find yourself a communist country.

LOL. Sprouts is hardly hippy etc. As for the customers, I shop there and I have guns up the wazoo. Stop the stereotyping.
Yeah they are part of CCW laws in every state I know of.
Not the law in Florida........... the business can ask you to leave, but there is no violation of law.
