In Texas we call it a 30.06 sign, named cleverly after the TX criminal code number. Unless the sign is right on the door and must be in big enough letters the 30.06 rule applies. A normal "no guns" sign or a picture of a gun with a line crossed through it does not mean squat for CHL holders. It *must* read verbatim: "Pursuant to Section 30.06, Penal Code (trespass by holder of license to carry a concealed handgun), a person licensed under Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code (concealed handgun law), may not enter this property with a concealed handgun"; or: (B) a sign posted on the property that: (i) includes the language described by Paragraph (A) in both English and Spanish; (ii) appears in contrasting colors with block letters at least one inch in height; and (iii) is displayed in a conspicuous manner clearly visible to the public. Whole thing: http://law.onecle.com/texas/penal/30.06.00.html Or... they can ask you to leave if they don't have a sign and see your weapon and object. If you don't leave on the propertys owners demand (or authorized personnel) you can be arrested under this statute. Goes the same for private homes. Then there is the list of places never to carry; schools, bars (51% rule), public sporting events, court, and a few more I'm forgetting off-hand. |

a gun show? He chose a place with hundreds of unarmed people. Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. "G.

I agee. Sadly, the theaters, or maybe thier insurance, mandates a "no
firearms allowed" sign. Which is about as effective as laws against crime. There were probably dozen or more CHL holders, whose guns were in the trunk of the car, or back home. Christopher A.

Can't exactly tell whether you're serious. "The James Holmes for whom Breitbart News has obtained documentation is 25 years old (the suspect has been reported as 24 years old). He has links to addresses in both Colorado and San Diego, where his mother has been reported to be from, according to news reports. He was issued a traffic citation in 2011--his sole run-in with the law. The same is true for the suspect arrested in connection with the shootings, according to reports. Update: Fox News reports that the suspect has a California-issued social security number, as does the man in the documents obtained by Breitbart News--a significant correlation, assuming the sources are independent. "Furthermore, the James Holmes for whom records were obtained by Breitbart News registered as a Democrat on June 14, 2011. He registered from an address in La Plata County, Colorado, and his status is listed as 'inactive.' " The report goes on to say that due to some minor, almost insignificant, discrepancies, it is impossible to tell with absolute certainty and proof beyond rational doubt that the shooter was a Democrat. http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Governm...tered-Democrat |

A good CHL, knowing s/he is going to a dark place, carries a high intensity
flash light. As to the profile, it doesn't matter what the facts are, the socialists and fascists will call for more laws to disarm those who are not violent. Christopher A.

Something like that hapened years ago in a Texas restrurant. A woman left her handgun in her car and had to watch as a gunman killed her mon and dad. I think the law was changed with her help. |

Would be hard to bear, knowing that you could have reduced the death toll.
If only you'd had your handgun with you. You'd be just one more movie goer, running for the exit, or hiding under the seat. Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. "G.

If, in fact, the theater affirmatively banned legally concealed handguns, the theater implicitly took responsibility for the safety of its patrons. That it failed in this duty is cause for mucho law suits. |

Like reading a thread from bottom to top vs top to bottom. With facts snipped out. He has to *make* sure his religion is on his sleeve, not caring about what you or others think. AS long as his sig is on TOP. He was told how to put his sig at the bottom and offered help to do so. I only see him (think "Sanders" / '"Sandroid') when people reply to him. The guy is selfish with no consideration to others. We have asked him politely to fix it. He does as he wishes, so FARK him, I say. He won't see this at first posting. |

Back in '95, when Texas passed its concealed carry law, the legal eagle from the Texas Restaurant Association advised against posting ANY sign, whether for or against, concealed carry. His reasonings were thus: * If a restaurant prohibits concealed carry, the presumption can be that the restaurant will take responsibility for its patrons safety. If something nasty does happen, a permit holder who left his weapon in the car will have a sustainable action against the restaurant for failure to perform an implied duty. * If the restaurant puts up a sign encouraging permit holders and a permit holder someday takes vigorous objection to finding snot on his lettuce, the other diners will immediately sue the restaurant for creating a deadly nuisance. Best to remain silent on the subject, the lawyer concluded. |

Several of the banks in the area have been robbed over the past couple of years and she's not too happy about it. Last week someone was breaking into cars in the parking lot (and also on our street). I'm planning on getting her a gun (thinking about a Walther PPK/S - light enough for her) but I don't think she'll get a CHL. |

Actually, about two million times a year, law abiding US citizens protect
themselves from violence, using personally owned fire arms. The answer is to reduce the laws on the law abiding. Like when Gabrielle Gifford was shot. A law abiding citizen heard the shots, and ran to see what was going on. Sadly, he arrived after the shooting. No one at the meeting was armed. Except the criminal, of course. Christopher A.

The problem is news like CNN and the like only like to broadcast the bad types, rarely the good types so you begin to think almost everyone is bad. The truth is the small minority are nuts but they get all the publicity because the good people don't want or need the publicity. Sometimes, I shut off the news like CNN because they paint such a picture of doom, it makes me think the earth will cease to exist soon. Frankly I get tired of this picture of gloom. |

I won't go that far. The problem is news like CNN and the like only like to broadcast the bad types, rarely the good types so you begin to think almost everyone is bad. The truth is the small minority are nuts but they get all the publicity because the good people don't want or need the publicity. I agree but I wasn't talking about CNN. I was talking about the morbid subject line on this post; and the fact that quite a few folks joined in the revelry before someone finally put some kind of serious slant on the conversation. I was talking about us, not CNN! RonB |
