No you couldn't carry there with a CHL until 1997.

Carry at Church, Hospital, Nursing Home, Amusment park, Citycouncil, school board meeting was with written consent, same as with colleges.

I left my 1995 CHL-16 book at home and I'm traveling, but I don't think there was an exception to 46.035 for having consent in 1995-96. I'll dig it up later and post, but "effective consent" is a concept in the 30.06 language, and 30.06 didn't exist in 1995-1996. Where in 46.035 did it say you can could carry in Church, Amusement Park, Hospital, Nursing home with effective consent. I don't think it did.

I would consider that a victory since they've banned CC by policy even for non-prohibited events. Are they still preventing people from CCing there with wands? I know they are at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, because I just filed a complaint with the City Attorney.

Finally, AAC can not use 30.06/7 to prosecute you for carrying there because they are owned by the City of Dallas and therefore 30.06/7 does not apply. On the other hand, they will likely just keep doing what they've been doing by physically keeping you out.

And sorry to OP for confusing the issue further. Joel's summary was very good...I just like to see myself type...

Locations that are prohibited by signage
30.06 (concealed), 30.07 (open), TABC 50%

Locations that are statutorily off limits
Educational institutions
Courts and Offices utilized by the courts
Professional sporting events
Correctional facility
Polling places
Racetrack
Secured area of an airport

Note TABC 51% locations are off limits regardless of proper signage being posted.

Note you have a statutory DEFENSE TO PROSECUTION if 51% sign is not posted. Just like you have a DEFENSE for carrying a handgun if you have a LTC...
