What mandated text has been omitted?Jim Beaux wrote:I am not asking opinions as to whether to carry past this sign. My position is that this sign is no more valid then a 30.06 having only 3/4" letters. The sign fails to meet legal requirements as it does not accurately communicate the law as it omits mandated text & fails the "(iii) is displayed in a conspicuous manner clearly visible to the public. ". The law doesnt state "language similar", it states, "language identical".
To recap: I entered this door two previous times and never saw this sign. When I was leaving I stopped and looked close at the doors and side lights & gave up and turned to leave and saw the sign. It really irked me that this was such a haphazard & confusing sign.
I am really interested in opinions (or facts) based only as to the validity of the sign....And no, dont ask, I dont intend to be a test case.
(3) "Written communication" means:
(A) a card or other document on which is written
language identical to the following: "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.
