Re: Almost went to jail!!!

jed wrote:I'm confused.....for the passed few weeks, probably longer, I have read an awful lot of posts about proper wording, letter size and such about both .06 and .07 signs. IIRC, a lot of posters were saying walk on in if signage is not 100% correct. Now, everyone seems to be all riled up because someone did just that. :headscratch

Like I have said several times, if the business knows enough to include the numbers 30.06 and or 30.07 in any kind of sign, they don't want guns in their business. Why would you want to patronize a business that does not want a law abiding, licensed gun carrier in their establishment? :banghead:
Totally different if you pass a non-compliant 30.06 sign concealed since if it is properly hidden, no one will know. Openly carrying past a 30.07 sign where God and everyone can see your hog leg is asking for verbal notification or worse (like in this case)

You have been verbally warned now, so when you enter carrying openly again, you will have committed a Class A Misdemeanor. Something tells me Luby's, the police and the DA will prosecute to the full extent of the law. You will face one year in jail, a $4,000 fine and loss of your LTC for seven years.

Chas.
And, depending on what you were told about carrying, unless they specifically said 'no open carry' (as indicated by the signs), then you might have been given verbal notification of no concealed carry as well. I would personally avoid that business totally if I was carrying at all unless you are 100% sure they only gave you notification of not wanting open carry.

Re: Almost went to jail!!!

And, if you think it has to be someone from the business, it doesn't
(b) For purposes of this section, a person receives notice if the owner of the
property or someone with apparent authority to act for the owner provides notice
to the person by oral or written communication
;
The police DEFINITELY have that 'apparent' authority.

Are you kidding me? You have been given notice. The police gave you the verbal notice when they advised they had been called by the business. Stunts like this are what give a bad name to open carriers. :mad5
