Then it has no legal bearing on anyone with an LTC.

Carry concealed and there's ZERO violation.

Carry open and there's violation only if you fail to leave after having been given proper notice.
Well, I know that, but maybe someone isn't happy to have to put up "big ugly signs", that's all I'm saying.
It doesn't matter if they are happy or not. They still need to follow the law for the sign to have the force of law.
I've been here on this forum for awhile now, I understand how it works, and I agree 100%. I think maybe the OP isn't happy to have to put up big ugly signs, and wanted to complain here to the rest of us about their unhappiness.
I know you've been here a while. That is why I was surprised by your comment which portrayed an apparent lack of understanding.
I understood k.mooneyham's post to mean what he said......not that HE agrees with the OP, but that he speculates that the OP is motivated by not wanting to have to post a compliant sign at his own business. OTH, I assumed that OP lives in Texas. Apparently Keith B knows differently.......in which case OP is trying to make Oklahoma law apply in Texas.......which is no different logically than if I were to insist that my LTC is valid in California.
After reading your comment TAM and rereading his comment, I can see I may have misinterpreted the comment. If that's the case, I apologize.

I wouldn't be happy if the law allowed them to put up a sign with such miniscule letters that one would need a magnifying glass to read.

They can do that and some may comply. However, it does not constitute trespass if someone with a LTC ignores it. It does apply to someone without a license though.

They would then have to give verbal notice or written notice with the same language as what is require for the sign for effective notice to be given.

Re: Dispelling a myth about "no guns allowed" signs

Think what you want but you are wrong in your presumptions about people on this forum and business owners that don't post compliant signs.

Re: Dispelling a myth about "no guns allowed" signs

Your comment makes it appear you believe a no guns allowed sign and verbal notice are one and the same. That's not correct. There is no sign needed to give verbal notice. A noncompliant no guns sign does not provide effective notice to someone with a LTC.

You have not busted a myth.
