I would love to see them tell an ODO he could not carry in there. :evil2:

But the policy does say that one would be asked to return to their vehicle. The GP attorney and I seemed to be making progress but they stopped responding right after that shooting near UTA. Remember concealed is concealed and you are the only one who can weigh the risk of being unprepared vs. potential static you might receive at the facility. Sadly there is no accountability for municipalities who decide they will ignore the law.

Semper Fi marine!
Perhaps it's time we in Texas borrowed a page from Florida and implemented our own version of their HB45. Tired of cities and counties openly thumbing their noses at preemption, the state legislature enacted HB45, which went into effect on 10/1/2011.

From the Florida Carry site:
it provides that when a firearms ordinance is challenged in court, the prevailing party is entitled to recoup all court costs and attorney's fees. If that isn't enough, it provides for fines and criminal prosecution by the State Attorney General for members of county commissions and municipal entities who willfully violate the state preemption statute.
When the various council members and county commissioners realized that they could be personally sued and held liable, they started repealing lots of illegal ordinances. But not without a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth (which, honestly, was kind of fun to watch from here).
