The law of trespass has long hinged on legal inferences about what is and isn\u2019t an implied invitation.\u00a0A girl scout may ring your doorbell to sell cookies, because your doorbell and the paved walkway to your front door implicitly invite that behavior. But the same scout might very well be trespassing if she walked around to the back of your house.<\/em><\/p>\n

The law of implied invitations has evolved over time.\u00a0For example, over the course of the 19th century, most states\u00a0reversed the default rule\u00a0as to whether domesticated cattle were permitted to graze on another owner\u2019s land, thereafter placing the burden on the visiting rancher to obtain that owner\u2019s express consent.\u00a0More recently, some cities have\u00a0flipped the default\u00a0and now prohibit peddlers from solicitation on private property without the owner\u2019s consent.<\/em><\/p>\n

The evolution of implied invitations to enter private property has also applied to gun use.\u00a0Traditionally, armed strangers were permitted to enter onto unimproved rural land to hunt \u2014 unless the owner posted \u201cNo Trespassing\u201d signs along the land\u2019s perimeter.\u00a0But now half the states have flipped the presumption\u00a0so that it is\u00a0trespassing to hunt on private property without the owner\u2019s consent.<\/em><\/p>\n

The law of implied invitations evolves because social norms change over time. Customers generally understand that, by default, they are not allowed to bring their (non-service) animals into a hotel room or a restaurant. They must look for \u201cpet-friendly\u201d or \u201cpets allowed\u201d establishments. But customs can change, and it is reasonable for the law to reflect that change. \u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

In light of this evidence, New York and other states should respond to the court\u2019s injunction by enacting a new requirement that businesses holding themselves open to the public affirmatively state whether or not they want patrons entering their property to carry weapons.<\/em><\/p>\n

An \u201caffirmative choice\u201d rule of this kind will make clear that it is the property owner who is making the decision, not the government \u2014 and so there is no government restriction on the right to bear arms, or even a finger on the scale for or against concealed carry.\u00a0A neutral law of this kind cannot violate the Second Amendment.<\/em><\/p>\n
