During the interaction the OP was never advised in any form or by inference that guns were allowed. Regardless if one of the reasons for this decision are invalid, it still doesnt convey permission. The "no guns" was clearly communicated. :tiphat:
The only no gun information I received from the clerk was that it was necessary for all parties to obey the blue sign which she misinterpreted. I don't need a shopkeeper to give me verbal permission to enter with a firearm.

I'm not worried about whether or not I received permission or verbal prohibition. I'm worried that the blue TABC sign could become for all intents and purposes a combination 30.06/30.07 sign in the minds of shopkeepers and LE.
I just asked a convenience store clerk while checking out with a Snickers Bar on my lunch break if she'd seen any open carryers yet. I'm at work and concealing. Anyway, a burly woman came out of the back telling us that no guns were allowed here and there was a big sign outside. I insisted she show me the sign and she proudly pointed my nose and o their blue TABC sign. :rules:
