I think we go to businesses assuming a reasonable level of safety, and when that's guaranteed and then not provided, we essentially charge the business with fraud. If they're up front about their lack of safety, then it's ok. Hence sign postings and waivers.

"Reasonable level of safety" is mushy and open ended. I suppose it really is up to a court to decide whether the business is at fault or not, because I can't think of a strict set of guidelines that a business should follow. but I also think a disclaimer at the door absolves them.

--- End quote ---

That is probably the thing that would protect the business from the liability.  If you sign a waiver or accept the fact that it could be a dangerous place due to the "No Guns" sign, you are taking the risk and the business wouldn't be held liable.
