Truth is IF you want to nit-pick and defiantly carry anyway when the sign is clearly at the entrance in plain view and you get busted let’s say for example you're weapon was printing or what not, it IS considered UNLAWFUL CARRY and you will (or could) have your license revoked. Because to the Criminal District Attorney the lettering size won't amount to crap... the sign was there plain and simple.
Of course it will be concealed... so what’s the worry? It's all up to the individual and if he/she wants to take the gamble.

My recommendation would be find a store that sells same product or whatever that doesn't have 30.06 signs and shop there and write a letter to the owner or corporate office expressing your discontent.

Someone missed this thread: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=12754&hilit=bedford&start=105" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; wherin this bit of news came out:

Any word on what happened to the RN's case?I am also curious, but most of the time we never hear the outcome of such cases. Unless something about the story is sensational, they usually disappear after the original story. There was probably much more discussion on this forum than was ever in the news.
I just received an email from the Bedford Police Chief. He stated that the DA declined to prosecute, based on the wording (not being exactly as it states in the statute) of, not only the sign posted outside the building, but also the wording in the hospital employee policy manual.

I don't know if you want to call what I've learned in CHL class from my instructor that has been teaching since 1995 http://www.texashandgunacademy.com/ and the same response of another CHL instructor "baseless conjecture". But hey, it's a free country.. GO FOR IT, be defiant; hopefully you're a smooth talker if you get busted. :roll:

That's exactly what I'd call it. It is baseless conjecture on your CHL instructor's and his buddie's part and you parroted it here.

Whe question I asked earlier is what case law your assertion is based on. Here's a hint: none. There is no case law on the matter; that issue has never come to a trial. No one has ever yet even been brought to trial for UCW in Texas for passing a non-compliant 30.06 sign, let alone convicted.

Therefore, your earlier statement:
Truth is IF you want to nit-pick and defiantly carry anyway when the sign is clearly at the entrance in plain view and you get busted let’s say for example you're weapon was printing or what not, it IS considered UNLAWFUL CARRY and you will (or could) have your license revoked.

is either baseless conjecture and most assuredly not the "truth," or you are psychic.

Re: Legal 30.06 signs to avoid

And you base that assertion on what case law, exactly?

Don't they cover that in the class?
