Redefining premises is #1 with me. I'd like to see "premises" expanded to include your personal vehicle. If someone doesn't want me to carry on my person in their building or outside my vehicle on their property, that's their right. I don't like it, but by the same token I'm sure some people wouldn't like that I don't allow certain language or smoking in my house. But it is my property and my right.

However, by limiting my right to carry on my premises (vehicle), they have limited my right to defend myself when I am off their lot.

IMHO, redefining premises to include your vehicle (actually any vehicle you may occupy) is the best balance of protecting my right to carry and their right to control their property.
