Except that the statute would most likely be changed to cover OC as well.TrueFlog wrote:I voted "No", and here's why. I think if OC passed, the number of 30.06 signs would actually decrease. The law is clear that 30.06 only applies to someone carrying under the authority of his CHL. So, if I walk up to a 30.06 sign, all I have to do is uncover and switch to OC - then the sign no longer applies to me, and I can go about my business. In otherwords, the presence of a 30.06 sign would actually encourage CHL'ers to OC while on the premises, and I don't think business want that. So I think they'd be less likely to post new signs and more likely to remove existing signs.
Think that CHL'ers won't OC under those circumstances? Just look at states like VA where CC isn't allowed in bars, but OC is. Lot's of CHL'ers up there switch to OC when they go into a bar (assuming that they aren't drinking). I think we'd see the same thing start to happen in TX.
