Re: 30.06 and 30.07 signs at gas stations

Just a thought (perhaps to add a bit of confusion to this)...

When Campus Carry goes into effect, a university can declare some areas (but not the whole campus) off limits. So if they post a 30.06 on a laboratory space in a building that contains classrooms also, does that make the whole building off limits? Or does it make the entire campus ("Property" of the owner) off limits.

I think the legislative intent (I am not a lawyer) is that ONLY that particular area within the building if off limits (i.e. only that laboratory). Therefore I believe that trying to apply "property" to other than the posted area would be a stretch. If "property" in this case applies only to a portion of a building instead of the entire building or entire campus, I don't see how posting a gas station building can reasonably be interpreted to mean the gas pumps and parking lot also.

Guess we are really going to have to wait for case law to decide this, or a legislative cleanup bill.
